Rare Earth Element Biomining from the Great Salt Lake Brine Using Engineered E. Coli
This data describes rare earth element adsorption onto E. coli cells engineered to express a lanthanide binding tag (LBT).  We used a Great Salt Lake synthetic solution as the background matrix with Tb added to 1-10,000 ppb, concentrations much lower than the competing ions present.  Our results showed that Tb binds …
