Abstract:In the recent years, yeasts have evolved as potent bioremediative candidates for the detoxi cation of xenobiotic compounds found in the natural environment. Candida sp. are well studied apart from Saccharomyces in heavy metal detoxi cation mechanisms. In the current study, Candida parapsilosis strain ODBG2, Candida sp. strain BANG3 and Candida viswanathii strain ODBG4 were isolated from industrial e uents and contaminated ground water were studied for their metal tolerance. Among these three isolates, the meta… Show more
