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...

heavy metal pollution by natural factors is a world-wide phenomenon. release of large quantities of heavy metals without handling proper processes that could decrease the concentration of such a material is a hassle that makes strains resistant to these heavy metals apart from entering into human food chain. in this research, wastewater of four firms in guilan province such as foolad, risandegi...

in this essay, the heavy metal resistance patterns of bacterial strains isolated from industrial wastewater, domestic wastewater and various parts of the wastewater treatment system of arak city have been studied. 28 intestinal bacterial strains were screened and identified as klebsiella, escherichia coli, citrobacter and enterobacter species biochemical methods. the minimum inhibitory concentr...

the present study is aimed at assessing the ability of   pseudomonas sp. an29 to uptake hg2+ from the metal contaminated environment. the minimum inhibitory concentration (mics) of hg   2+ was 500 μg/ml. pseudomonas   sp. an29 could tolerate pb   2+ (600 g/ml), cu2+ (200 g/ml), cd2+ (50 g/ml), zn2+ (50 g/ml), ni2+ (550 g/ml) and cr   6+ (150 g/ml). the isolate showed typical g...

Introduction Bacteria may carry determinants of resistance to a number of heavy metals, including silver, bismuth, cadmium, cobalt, copper, mercury, lead, nickel, thallium or zinc cations and the oxyanions of arsenic, chromium, antimony, tellurium or tungsten. Such resistance determinants have been reviewed extensively [ 1-41. Bacterial resistance to heavy metals is conferred by specific resist...

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. ...
