Abstract
⺠Influence of initial pH on CaCO3 precipitation induced by microbial CA. ⺠Both the intracellular and extracellular CA promoted CaCO3 precipitation. ⺠The higher pH favored catalytic action of microbial CA on CaCO3 precipitation. ⺠The CaCO3 crystals were mainly calcite in the presence of microbial CA. ⺠The morphology of crystals induced by microbial CA changed with time.
