A consortium-GB containing two microorganisms Galactomyces geotrichum MTCC 1360 and Bacillus sp. VUS was able to degrade sulfurcontaining dye Brilliant Blue G, optimally at pH 9 and temperature at 50 8C. The ability of consortium-GB to work at higher temperature and pH ranges will help in using this consortium for removal of the dye from textile effluent. Malt extract, peptone and beef extract ...

Decolorization of six synthetic dyes using three sources of fungal laccase with the origin of Aspergillus oryzae, Trametes versicolor, and Paraconiothyrium variabile was investigated. Among them, the enzyme from P. variabile was the most efficient which decolorized bromophenol blue (100%), commassie brilliant blue (91%), panseu-S (56%), Rimazol brilliant blue R (RBBR; 47%), Congo red (18.5%), a...

partial least square and principal component regression methods were applied to various mixtures of Allura Red and Brilliant Blue to determine the concentrations. Colorants, at the same time, were analyzed with UV-spectrophotometry in chemical separation. The obtained experimental data have been evaluated by chemometric methods as Partial Least Squares (PLS) and Principle Component Regressi...

INTRODUCTION Brilliant blue G is a new dye used for staining the internal limiting membrane to ease its peeling in cases like a macular hole. CASES Three patients presented with full-thickness idiopathic macular hole. They underwent pars planavitrectomy, Brilliant Blue G (BBG) stained internal limiting membrane peeling and fluid gas exchange. OBSERVATIONS Postoperatively,the macular hole cl...

Decolorization of brilliant green (0.06 g/L), Evans blue (0.15 g/L), and their mixture (total concentration 0.08 g/L, proportion 1:1 w/w) by fungi was studied. Fungal strains [Pleurotus ostreatus (BWPH), Gloeophyllum odoratum (DCa), and Fusarium oxysporum (G1)] were used separately and as a mixture of them. Zootoxicity (Daphnia magna) and phytotoxicity (Lemna minor) changes were estimated after...
