“…Efforts to explore effective methods to treat soil contaminated with pesticides and other compounds have led to the study of alternative remediation strategies, such as bioremediation [2,3], chemical remediation [4] and electrokinetic remediation [5]. Bioremediation process is relatively slow and requires keeping the experimental conditions conducive to the viability and growth of the microorganisms.…”

“…Ligninolytic and nonligninolytic cultures of P. chrysosporium were found responsible for the degradation of several triphenylmethane dyes (Bumpus and Brock, 1988). Of six isolates, two strains of white-rot fungi, Wd1 and Id, enhanced the degradation of Crystal Violet and Brilliant Green to 36 and 62% and 44 and 46%, respectively, in the presence of Mn(II), H 2 O 2 , and glucose (Tayal et al, 1999). This indicates that peroxidases are involved in the degradation.…”

“…pH was measured using a digital pH meter of Elico, India. Chlorophenols (pentachlorophenol (PCP)) were analyzed by HPLC (Shimadzu Corporation, Kyoto, Japan) (Tayal et al 1999). Chloride content was determined at 460 nm by UV-Vis spectrophotometer (VARIAN 50Bio) using sodium chloride as standard solution (Bergmann and Sanik 1957).…”

Two indigenous bacterial strains, Bacillus megaterium ETLB-1 (accession no. KC767548) and Pseudomonas plecoglossicida ETLB-3 (accession no. KC767547), isolated from soil contaminated with paper mill effluent, were co-immobilized on corncob cubes to investigate their biodegradation potential against black liquor (BL). Results exhibit conspicuous reduction in color and lignin of BL upto 913.46 Co-Pt and 531.45 mg l(-1), respectively. Reduction in chlorophenols up to 12 mg l(-1) was recorded with highest release of chloride ions, i.e., 1290 mg l(-1). Maximum enzyme activity for lignin peroxidase (LiP), manganese peroxidase (MnP), and laccase (LAC) was recorded as 5.06, 8.13, and 8.23 U ml(-1), respectively, during the treatment. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed successful immobilization of bacterial strains in porous structures of biomaterial. Gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) showed formation of certain low molecular weight metabolites such as 4-hydroxy-benzoic acid, 3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde, ferulic acid, and t-cinnamic acid and removal of majority of the compounds (such as teratogenic phthalate derivatives) during the period of treatment. Results demonstrated that the indigenous bacterial consortium possesses excellent decolorization and lignin degradation capability which enables its commercial utilization in effluents treatment system.
