Potential of Citrobacter freundii for bioaccumulation of heavy metal - copper
نویسندگان
چکیده
The small scale industries located at Mira Road, Mumbai, are engaged in various processes/operations which generate the wastes. The waste generated are collected and disposed of at the dumping ground near the industrial estate. In the present study, the physico-chemical and microbial status of the contaminated sites has been carried out. The heavy metal with special reference to copper was exposed to microbial consortium at increasing concentrations viz 5, 25, 50, 75, 100 up to 800ppm to isolate potential microorganism for bioremediation. Citrobacter freundii has been identified by 16SrDNA technique as potential microorganism for bioaccumulation/bioremediation of copper. This organism can be used for remediation of copper from contaminated environment.

Bioremediation Activity of Pb (II) Resistance Citrobacter sp. MKH2 Isolated from Heavy Metal Contaminated Sites in Iran
Heavy metal pollution all around the world has become a major environmental concern and the bioremediation of polluted environments is an increasingly popular strategy due to both its efficiency and safety. In this study, a bacterial strain resistant to heavy metal was isolated from metal contaminated sites. Strain MKH2 was removed Pb (II) with 95.06%. This isolate was also resistant to zinc, c...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of a Pb, Cu and antibiotic resistant bacteria from soil of industrial wastewater ground
Industrial effluents consist many pollutant and heavy metals. Bacteria isolated from industrial west water ground may have potential to tolerate heavy metal. In this study we isolate a Citrobacter sp. which can resist heavy metal like Cu and Pb. Slurry from industrial west water ground was collected from 22.0663 N, 88.1041 E. The heavy metal content and other parameters of soil were estimated. ...

متن کاملField study on Re and heavy metal phytoextraction and phytomining potentials by native plant species growing at Sarcheshmeh copper mine tailings, SE Iran
In the present work, we aimed to focus on the identification and characterization of the heavy metal-tolerant plant species growing spontaneously at the tailings site of the Sarcheshmeh copper mine, south of Iran. Our aim was to find the plant species that were potentially useful for phytoextraction purposes. The concentrations of As, Cu, Mo, Ni, Zn, and Re were analyzed in soil as well as in t...

BACKGROUNDS: Heavy metal toxicity has confirmed to be a critical threat to animals’ health. It has been proved that heavy metals can cause immunosuppression. Although, it is said that damage of immune function plays a contributing role in the increasing incidence of infectious diseases. The increasing use of rural habitats by jackals make them suitable to monitor the impact of anthropogenic on ...
