Genome analysis to decipher syntrophy in the bacterial consortium ‘SCP’ for azo dye degradation

Bacterial Isolation, Optimization and Immobilization for Decolorization and Degradation of the Azo Dye (Basic Red 46)

Dyes are the major toxic substances in all industrial wastewater and are highly carcinogenic to human beings and other soil and water living things. In this study, the most efficient bacterial isolate in decolorization of Basic Red 46 dye, isolate A3, was isolated and identified as Enterobacter cloacae sp. under the accession number KP202719. Different parameters such as dye concentration (100 ...

Evaluation of the efficacy of a fungal consortium for degradation of azo dyes and simulated textile dye effluents

Azo dyes are widely prevalent environmental contaminants that are recalcitrant to biodegradation processes and have detrimental biological effects. Hence, exploring the novel microbial agents and to develop ecofriendly cost-effective process is pertinent for treatment of textile effluents. A fungal consortium comprising three strains Penicillium oxalicum SAR-3, Aspergillus niger SAR-6 and Asper...

Degradation of azo dye orange G in aqueous solution

Isolation, development and identification of salt-tolerant bacterial consortium from crude-oil-contaminated soil for degradation of di-azo dye Reactive Blue 220.

The objective of this study was development and characterization of a halophilic bacterial consortium for rapid decolorization and degradation of a wide range of dyes and their mixtures. The 16S rRNA gene analysis of developed halophilic consortium VN.1 showed that the bacterial consortium contained six bacterial strains, which were identified as Pseudomonas fluorescens HM480360, Enterobacter a...

Mineralization of the sulfonated azo dye Mordant Yellow 3 by a 6-aminonaphthalene-2-sulfonate-degrading bacterial consortium.

Under anaerobic conditions the sulfonated azo dye Mordant Yellow 3 was reduced by the biomass of a bacterial consortium grown aerobically with 6-aminonaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid. Stoichiometric amounts of the aromatic amines 6-aminonaphthalene-2-sulfonate and 5-aminosalicylate were generated and excreted into the medium. After re-aeration of the culture, these amines were mineralized by differe...
