Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBioremediation Potential of Heavy Metal-Resistant Bacteria in Koto Panjang Reservoir, Riau, IndonesiaIrda Sayuti, Darmadi, Adrian Hartanto et al.Koto Panjang Reservoir serves as a vital water resource supporting the social well-being of the local community in the Riau Province. The flow of the Kampar River, acting as the riverine zone and water inlet to the reservoir, provides environmental support for the construction of hydroelectric power plants (PLTA) and the aquaculture practice of Floating Net Cages (FNC). Over the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 10 Feb 2025 · 4,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCharacterization of a Multi-Metal Resistant Bacillus cereus Strain TWSL_5 and it’s Bioremediation Potential for Cr, Pb, Zn and FeWeerasingha Mudiyanselage Nilmini Hasintha Kumari, Naduviladath Vishvanath Chandrasekharan, Champika Dilrukshi WijayarathnaAn effluent sample collected from a textile dyeing factory was screened to isolate metal resistant endogenous bacteria using standard microbiology techniques. A bacterium with the highest metal resistance was characterized by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and the bacterial genome was screened for any possible metal resistant genes using the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). The bioremoval ability of the isolate was … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 15 Jul 2021 · 6,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBioremediation of Petroleum Hydrocarbon-Polluted Mangrove Swamps Using Nutrient Formula Produced From Water Hyacint (Eicchornia crassipes)Frank Anayo Orji, Abiye Anthony Ibiene, Phillip O. OkerentugbaLaboratory-scale studies were carried out using a nutrient formula produced from Eicchornia crassipes plant to achieve bioremediation of crude oil impacted mangrove soil. In a 70 day study, the culturable heterotrophic bacterial population of the Eichhornia crassipes recipe increased from 6.26×105 Cfu/g to 2.69×107 Cfu/g. The control set-up had its total culturable bacterial count increased from 5.76×105 Cfu/g to 1.24×106 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,643 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSimulation Model for Feasibility Studies on Bioremediation of Uranium Mill Tailings using Hyper Accumulator Chrysopogon zizanioidesH. Shanmugasundaram, Sathesh Kumar Annamalai, Kantha Deivi Arunachalam et al.Contamination of environment by uranium is expected in places where mining of uranium ore and processing, nuclear testing and reactor operations when the control measures are not effective. The daughter radionuclides of the ores, chemical additives and residual uranium are the maincomponents of processed waste from uranium industries. The bioremediation of contaminated areas using plant species or group of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 6 · 11 Dec 2016 · 8,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDevelopment of Three Bacteria Consortium for the Bioremediation of Crude Petroleum-oil in Contaminated WaterAbdualdaim Mohammed Mukred, Aidil Abd Hamid, Ainon Hamzah, Wan Mohtar Wan YusoffWe have to developed active microbial consortium that could be of higher degradation of crude oil contaminated groundwater, wastewater aeration pond and biopond at the oil refinery Terengganu Malaysia. Among four isolates that showed good growth only three different isolates (Acinetobacter faecalis WD2, Staphylococcus. sp DD3 and Neisseria elongate TDA4.) were selected based on the growth ability and degradation. Significant … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 10,133 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEmerging Contaminants in Agriculture and Ways to Reduce them Emerging Contaminants in AgricultureSandra Pérez-Álvarez, Eduardo Fidel Héctor Ardisana, Marco Antonio Magallanes-Tapia et al.The accelerated development of modern agriculture in order to feed a growing world population is one of the main causes of contamination in soil, water, and air, causing diseases in animals and humans. Among the most common pollutants are nitrogenous fertilizers, pesticides, hydrocarbons, and nanomaterials. As more food is produced, pollution increases, making it necessary the transition to sustainable agriculture, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 2 · 15 Mar 2023 · 5,803 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDegumming of Raw Silk Fabric with Help of Marine Extracellular ProteaseDas Sumana, Mathummal Sudarshan, Ashoke Ranjan Thakur, Shaon RayChaudhuriProtease secreting microbe was isolated and characterized on the basis of their morphological, biochemical, physiological and 16S rDNA based molecular properties. The extracellular protease was quantified and characterized. Protease was used for different time (4, 8, 12 and 24 h) at different temperature (RT and 37°C) for optimization of the degumming process for raw silk fabric with enzyme dosage (0.2-1 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 8,498 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBACTERIAL ISOLATES OF MARINE COAST AS COMMERCIAL PRODUCER OF PROTEASES. Das, I. Mukherjee, M. Sudarshan et al.The objective of this work was to explore and exploit the extracellular protease secreting marine microbial biodiversity of the eastern coastal region of India. Culture dependent method was applied for isolation of microbes from the marine coast of West Bengal (Digha and Mandarmani) and Andhra Pradesh (Vizag) in India. Six protease secreting isolates were screened using casein hydrolysing property as … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 8 Aug 2012 · 8,795 accessesView PDFCite
