Background Inoculation of plants to enhance yield of crops and performance of other plants is a century old, proven technology for rhizobia and a newer venue for plant growth-promoting bacteria and other plant symbionts. The two main aspects dominating the success of inoculation are the effectiveness of the bacterial isolate and the proper application technology. Scope An assessment of practical aspects of bacterial inoculants for contemporary agriculture and environmental restoration is critically evaluated from the point of view of their current technological status, current applications, and future use. This is done because there are windows of opportunity for new developments in applied research using renewable, non-contaminated natural resources and new venues for research. Special emphasis is given to formulations and polymeric carriers. This review concentrates on practical aspect of inoculation technology dating from 1998 to 2013. Earlier publications are mentioned only for clarification of a specific point. Conclusions This review discusses characteristics of a carrier for inoculants, formulations of inoculants including liquid, organic, inorganic, polymeric, and encapsulated formulations. Technical aspects include inoculation techniques (soil and seed application), mass culture production, bulk sterilization, seed coating, shelf-life, and effect of moisture. Future research venues needed are noted.

“…If the gel is ionotropic, then the concentration of the ionic solution in the hardening bath will also affect final gel particle size. Typical gel particle sizes using this technique are 0.5-6 mm using conventional dropping methods (Blandino et al, 1999;Murakata et al, 2001;Ouwerx et al, 1998) and on the scale of hundreds of microns if modified techniques are used to atomize the hydrocolloid solution (Murakata et al, 2001). On an industrial scale commercial extruders and scraped-surface heat exchangers may be used to form gel particles (Brown et al, 2004;Peng et al, 2006).…”

Hydrocolloid gel particles of micron and sub-micron size are particularly attractive for use in many applications in the food, agricultural, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries, due to their biocompatibility, perception as "natural" materials, and soft-solid texture. Industrial applications for such particles include uses as texturizers in confectionery and cosmetic products, slow-release encapsulation agents for flavors, nutrients, and pharmaceutical products, and thickeners in soups and sauces. Properties such as particle size, hardness, shape, texture, and molecular release rates can be important for individual applications. In addition, product formats will determine specific needs for physical form (e.g. dry or wet) and compatibility with other components. The diverse range of potential applications for hydrocolloid gel particles provide a driver for understanding-led tailoring of raw material and process conditions. This review introduces some of the materials that are used to form hydrocolloid gel particles and the corresponding gel formation mechanisms. One issue of importance in the production of hydrocolloid gel particles is the control of particle properties, such as release profiles, strength, and detectability within products. An alternative technique to traditional methods of hydrocolloid gel particle production is evaluated and a model for control of particle size, and subsequently other particle properties, is proposed. Key properties of hydrocolloid gel particles are identified and characterization methods for evaluating these properties are described.

“…Calcium alginate [345][346][347] as well as κ-carrageenan [348][349][350] has been used for immobilizing baker's yeast, and a sodium alginate/calcium chloride-immobilized baker's yeast has been used during the synthesis of d-and l-armentomycin [351]. This system has also been used for the reduction of several β-keto esters [352], and the antiselectivity as well as the yields was improved compared to reductions using classical conditions [217,[353][354][355].…”
