Isolation and Characterization ofParacoccussp. GSM2 Capable of Degrading Textile Azo Dye Reactive Violet 5

Isolation and Characterization of Paracoccus sp. GSM2 Capable of Degrading Textile Azo Dye Reactive Violet 5

A potential bacterial strain GSM2, capable of degrading an azo dye Reactive Violet 5 as a sole source of carbon, was isolated from textile mill effluent from Solapur, India. The 16S rDNA sequence and phenotypic characteristics indicated an isolated organism as Paracoccus sp. GSM2. This strain exhibited complete decolorization of Reactive Violet 5 (100 mg/L) within 16 h, while maximally it could...

Isolation and Characterization of an Azo Dye Reactive Red 2 Degrading Bacteria from Dye Contaminated Soil

A bacterial strain GSM3, capable of decolorizing an azo dye Reactive Red 2 was isolated from dye contaminated soil sample collected from Ammu dyeing industry, Bellary, India. Based on phenotypic characteristics and 16S rDNA sequencing, strain GSM3 was identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa GSM3. Isolate GSM3 showed 97% decolorization of Reactive Red 2 (300 mgL) within 10 h, while maximally it cou...

Isolation and characterization of dye degrading bacteria from textile dye effluents

Textile dye industry waste is one of the most serious problems in the environment. The dye wastes are severely deleterious to surface water bodies. The present study was an attempt for the assessment of different physicochemical parameters such as pH, temperature, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total Solids (TS), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), ...

Biodegradation of Reactive Dye Reactive Violet 5 by Bacteria Isolated from Dye Contaminated Soil

The Pseudomonas aeruginosa GSM3 isolated from dye contaminated soil was able to degrade Reactive Violet 5 completely as a sole source of carbon (300 mgL) within 20 h under static condition. The organism exhibited good decolorization ability in the pH ranges from 5.0 to 9.0 and temperature from 30 to 40C respectively. The optimum degradation was observed at 37C and pH 7. The maximum concentratio...
