Heavy Metals Tolerance Potential of Fungi Species Isolated from Gold Mine Tailings in Ghana
Introduction: Heavy metal contamination has necessitated a less expensive and non-destructive clean-up technique such as mycoremediation. This study aimed to isolate, identify, and evaluate the tolerance of fungi species in different concentrations of heavy metals for their potential use in bioremediation. Materials and Methods: Fungi were isolated by serial dilution and spread plate technique...
متن کاملCopper sulfide precipitation by yeasts from Acid mine-waters.
Two strains of Rhodotorula and one of Trichosporon precipitated dissolved copper with H(2)S formed by reducing elemental sulfur with glucose. Iron stimulated this activity under certain conditions. In the case of Rhodotorula strain L, iron stimulated copper precipitation aerobically at a copper concentration of 18 but not 180 mug/ml. Anaerobically, the L strain required iron for precipitation o...
متن کاملBioactivity of endophytic bacteria and yeasts isolated from Thymus
Endophytes are important resources of bioactive compounds and due to their potential in theproduction of secondary metabolites, they are regarded as a potential reservoir ofbiotechnological applications. In this study, the bioactivity of bacteria and yeasts endophytesresiding in Thymus sp. was evaluated. During April to October 2011, symptomless and healthytissues of Thymus sp. were collected. ...
متن کاملXylose and cellobiose fermentation by yeasts isolated from the Brazilian biodiversity
Background The production of fuel ethanol has become important in recent years due not only to the future depletion of fossil fuels, but also environmental concerns. An attractive source of raw material for ethanol production is the lignocellulosic biomass, composed of lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose. In the case of Brazil, the sugarcane bagasse is an interesting source of cellulose and hem...
متن کاملIndirect Manganese Removal by Stenotrophomonas sp. and Lysinibacillus sp. Isolated from Brazilian Mine Water
Manganese is a contaminant in the wastewaters produced by Brazilian mining operations, and the removal of the metal is notoriously difficult because of the high stability of the Mn(II) ion in aqueous solutions. To explore a biological approach for removing excessive amounts of aqueous Mn(II), we investigated the potential of Mn(II) oxidation by both consortium and bacterial isolates from a Braz...
