Chromate reduction by cell-free extract of Bacillus firmus KUCr1.
Microbial enzymatic reduction of a toxic form of chromium [Cr(VI)] has been considered as an effective method for bioremediation of this metal. This study reports on the in vitro reduction of Cr(VI) using cell-free extracts from a Cr(VI) reducing Bacillus firmus KUCr1 strain. Chromium reductase was found to be constitutive and its activity was observed both in soluble cell fractions (S12 and S1...
متن کاملChromate Reduction by Hydroxycarbonate Green Rust
Key words: mineral/water interface, reduced Fe minerals, natural attenuation To address the potential for abiotic natural attenuation of chromate, we have studied the kinetics and mechanism of chromate removal in the presence of hydroxycarbonate green rust. The kinetics of chromate removal were studied in batch systems to evaluate the effect of green rust surface area and pH. The rate of chroma...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of mercuric reductase by newly isolated halophilic bacterium, Bacillus firmus MN8
The current study was aimed at isolating and identifying the halophilic and halotolerant bacteria which can produce mercuric reductase in Gavkhuni wetland in Iran. Moreover, tracking and sequencing merA gene and kinetic properties of mercuric reductase in the selected strain were performed in this study. Soil samples were taken from Gavkhuni wetland and cultured in nutrient agar medium...
متن کاملOxidation and reduction of D-xylose by cell-free extract of Pichia quercuum.
The fermentation mechanism of the simultaneous production of D-xylonic acid and xylitol from D-xylose by Pichia quercuum was studied by using a cell-free enzyme preparation. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP)-dependent D-xylose dehydrogenase activity and NADP-dependent D-xylose reductase activity were detected, and the oxido-reduction reaction of D-xylose was able to couple thro...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cell Growth Inhibition of Bifidobacterium Bifidum Cell-free Supernatant Extract on 4T1Tumor Cell Lineage
Background: Cancer is amongst the leading reasons of death in all parts of the world. Breast cancer is also responsible for the largest number of deaths among women population. Several studies confirmed that Bifidobacterium bifidum as a probiotic meaningfully inhibited breast cancer development. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of B. bifidum supernatant on the cell growth inhib...
