Abstract
Formulation provides a means to stabilize for storage and delivery biocontrol and bioremediation agents based on microbes such as bacteria and fungi. Typically it is difficult to both stabilize and deliver fragile non-spore-forming bacteria. Fungal spores might intuitively appear to be easy to stabilize; however, their tendency to germinate in low moisture environments presents challenges for the formulation scientist. Here we present a light background regarding issues with formulating microbes and strategies to help overcome instability and delivery issues.

Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 28 August 2016.
All research outputs
#15,692,595
of 23,318,744 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#5,494
of 13,323 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#233,697
of 396,101 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#551
of 1,473 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,318,744 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,323 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 396,101 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,473 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
