- Title
Changes in the composition, texture, and properties of clay soils under the influence of microbiological denitrification and fermentation.

- Abstract
The effect of a concentrated mixture of denitrifying and fermenting bacteria on the composition, structure, state, and properties of alluvial clay soils sampled in Perm City has been studied. The results demonstrate an increase in the volume of a sample when soaked in a solution of microorganisms, changes in the mineral composition of soils, an increase in their porosity and humidity, a decrease in the density and stress-strain characteristics. The processes of interaction between microorganisms and the components of soils are mentioned, which can lead to such effects.
