Pseudomonas aeruginosa KUCD1, a possible candidate for cadmium bioremediation

Dissipation of butachlor by a new strain of Pseudomonas sp. isolated from paddy soils

Butachlor (BUT) is a chloroacetanilide herbicide widely applied to rice paddies to control annual grass and broad-leaf weeds. A BUT-degrading bacterial strain (PK) was isolated from paddy soils. Biochemical and 16S rRNA sequencing characteristics confirmed the strain as Pseudomonas aeruginosa (99% resemblance). The isolate dissipated BUT (100 μg/mL) in an M9 liquid medium with a rate of 0.5 ± 0...

Molecular and in situ characterization of cadmium-resistant diversified extremophilic strains of Pseudomonas for their bioremediation potential

Cadmium-resistant strains psychrotolerant Pseudomonas putida SB32 and alkalophilic Pseudomonas monteilli SB35 were originally isolated from the soil of Semera mines, Palamau, Jharkhand, India. Further, to unravel the mechanism involved in cadmium resistance, plasmid DNA was isolated from the strains and subjected to amplification of the czc gene, which is responsible for the efflux of three met...

Comparison of Biosorption of Cadmium (II) from Aqueous Solution, by Bacillus Sp and Pseudomonas Aeruginosa

Draft Genome Sequence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strain RB, a Bacterium Capable of Synthesizing Cadmium Selenide Nanoparticles

Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain RB is a bacterium capable of synthesizing cadmium selenide (CdSe) nanoparticles and was isolated from a soil sample. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of P. aeruginosa strain RB. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a draft genome of a CdSe-synthesizing bacterium.
