using of microorganisms to remove industrial pollutions of environment is an efficient methodthat mimics natural process and decrease remediation cost. in this study, 450 actinomycete strains wereisolated from high metal content soils in iran. heavy metal salt solutions in different concentrations were usedto isolate the resistant strains. 40 resistant actinomycetes which they showed highly res...

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...

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...

background and objectives: heavy metals are considered as high risk biocides due to their harmful effects on human health, the environment and other living organisms. bacterial strains showing resistance to heavy metals has been used for removing such toxic materials from the environment. in this study we isolated and characterized a heavy metals-resistance halophilic bacterial strains from kal...

In recent years, environmental pollution by coal mining is a long-established human activity affecting all levels of life with various environmental impacts by generating heavy metals. The presence of heavy metals even in trace amount is toxic and detrimental to all living organisms. The coal mine area in Bokaro is one of the “Toxic Hotspot” in India. Bacteria have evolved uptake and efflux mec...

The Klip River has suffered from severe anthropogenic effects from industrial activities such as mining. Long-term exposure to heavy metal pollution has led to the development of heavy metal resistant strains of Pseudomonas sp. KR23, Lysinibacillus sp. KR25, and E. coli KR29. The objectives of this study were to characterize the genetics of copper and chromate resistance of the isolates. Copper...
