this laboratory study simultaneously was conducted to evaluate the resistance to heavy metals, silver, cadmium and a number of commonly used antibiotics. sampling was done in 2014 of the two silver workshops in isfahan, and the inlet of phase 2 of shahin shahr wastewater treatment plant, isfahan. to isolate resistant bacteria to metal silver and cadmium and review multiple resistance to other m...

several heavy metal resistant bacterial strains were isolated from sediment and water samples collected from the persian gulf and enclosed industrial areas. all the isolated bacteria were identified by 16s rrna gene sequencing. isolated bacteria were tested for the presence of plasmids using the modified alkaline lysate method. the method was effective for identification and characterization of...

during this research, bacteria resistant to metals were evaluated in the soil of isfahan province.according to the sampling locations the soils are classified as agricultural soils, non-agricultural soils andsediments of the zayanderood riverbank. the bacteria resistant to lead (2 mm), copper (5 mm), cadmium(0.5 mm) and arsenic (5 mm) were identified, and then during later stages, the minimum i...

use of microorganisms for removing mercury is an effective technology for the treatment of industrial wastewaters and can become an effective tool for the remediation of man-impacted coastal ecosystems with this metal. in this study, seven types of mercury resistant bacteria were separated from industrial waste and minimum inhibitory concentration (mic), were determined for these bacteria. resu...

One hundred strains of Gram-negative bacteria were isolated from a brackish water Lagoon, Küçükçekmece in Istanbul-Turkey. Identification studies showed that 31% of the isolated bacteria were Escherichia coli, 28% were Citrobacter, and 12% were Enterobacter. Antibiotic and heavy metal resistances exhibited by these bacteria were evaluated. In antibiotic susceptibility tests, 68% of the isolates...

arsenic is one of the most dangerous heavy metals in the environment that is harmful for organisms such as human beings. due to this treat economic approach for elimination of arsenic from water and wastewater is necessary. in this research arsenic-resistant bacteria from water and sediments of lake maharloo were isolated and identified then their antibiotic resistance was evaluated. sampling w...
