An Alternative Approach of Toxic Heavy Metal Removal by <i>Arthrobacter phenanthrenivorans</i>:Assessment of Surfactant Production and Oxidative Stress

Abstract: The present study demonstrates the removal of three toxic heavy metals (lead, cadmium and nickel) by the bacterial strain Arthrobacter phenanthrenivorans from polluted water. The removal efficiency of heavy metals was recorded to be highest in case of lead (79.91%), followed by nickel (47.62%) and cadmium (34.05%). Furthermore, surfactant production by A. phenanthrenivorans was optimized, which is useful for different purposes like metal and oil removal from water. Partial characterization of the semi-purified… Show more

“…The negatively charged phosphate, carboxylic groups enhanced the absorption of positive-charged metal ions at higher pH values [44]. In a study, Park et al [26] reported that the optimum pH value for bioremediation of heavy metal ranges between 5.5 and 6.5, however this pH ranges varied widely.…”

“…Malondialdehyde (MDA) is one of the final products of the peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in cells. Increasing MDA content might lead to the overproduction of free radicals, which in turn damages the membrane structure [ 132 , 134 ]. Our study revealed lower MDA concentration in the synbiotic-fed groups, indicating stronger anti-oxidant profiles in the experimental fish.…”

“…Some microorganisms are able to detoxify heavy metals by employing mechanisms such as biosorption, sequestration or chelation, active pumping and reduction (Batta et al 2013;Oves et al 2013;Banerjee et al 2016). Microorganisms having capability to reduce heavy metals such as chromium, molybdenum mercury into less toxic forms were documented.…”
