Aerobic removal of methoxychlor and intermediate metabolites detection by a native Streptomyces sp. strain
(Elsevier, 2014-09)
Streptomyces strains isolated from pesticide-contaminated sediments of Santiago del Estero, Argentina were able to grow in the presence of 1.66 mg L-1 of methoxychlor (MTX). Streptomyces sp. A14 showed the best growth in ...
Organophosphorus compounds biodegradation by novel bacterial isolates and their potential application in bioremediation of contaminated water
(Elsevier, 2020-12)
Organophosphorus compounds (OPs), the major pesticides used worldwide, comprise an environmental hazard due to their harmful toxicity. Aimed to develop a bioreactor to remediate OPs contaminated wastewater, bacteria isolated ...
Polyphasic characterization and identification of the bioremediation agent Bacillus sp. SFC 500-1E
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2020-11)
Bacillus sp. SFC 500-1E is used for the effective treatment of tannery effluents since it consistently removes hexavalent chromium from diverse contaminated matrices. The aim of the present study was to complete identification ...
Accumulation of Pollutants, Self-purification and Impact on Peripheral Urban Areas: A Case Study in Shantytowns in Argentina
(World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology, 2015-05)
This work sets out to debate the tensions involved in the processes of contamination and self-purification in the urban space, particularly in the streams that run through the Buenos Aires metropolitan area. For much of ...
Rhizoremediation of phenol and chromium by the synergistic combination of a native bacterial strain and Brassica napus hairy roots
(Elsevier, 2014-03)
A bacterial strain resistant to phenol and Cr (VI) was isolated from an industrial polluted soil of Córdoba province (Argentina), which was identified as Pantoea sp. FC 1. This microorganism was able to use phenol as sole ...
Biotreatment of cr(VI)-containing wastewater mediated by indigenous bacteria
(Gheorghe Asachi Technical University of Iasi, 2018-11)
Indigenous Pseudomonas veronii 2E, Klebsiella oxytoca P2 and Klebsiella ornithinolityca 1P were tested as catalysts for the transformation of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) for Cr(VI)-containing wastewater biotreatments. The Cr(VI) ...
Co-treatment of an oily sludge and aged contaminated soil: permanganate oxidation followed by bioremediation
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2020-05-01)
The bioremediation of an oily sludge (321 ± 30 mg of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons/kgDRY SLUDGE and 13420 ± 1300 mg of aliphatic hydrocarbons/kgDRY SLUDGE) by mixture with contaminated soil (23 ± 2 mg of polycyclic ...
Bioremediation strategies for chromium removal: Current research, scale-up approach and future perspectives
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-05)
Industrial applications and commercial processes release a lot of chromium into the environment (soil, surface water or atmosphere) and resulting in serious human health diseases because of their toxicity. Biological ...
Arsenic-tolerant microbial consortia from sediments of Copahue geothermal system with potential applications in bioremediation
(Wiley VCH Verlag, 2019-05)
Although arsenic (As) is recognized as a toxic element for living species, some microorganisms have the ability to tolerate and transform it; recent studies have proposed to take advantage of such capacity to develop ...
Phenol degradation and heavy metal tolerance of Antarctic yeasts
(Springer Tokyo, 2017-05)
In cold environments, biodegradation of organic pollutants and heavy metal bio-conversion requires the activity of cold-adapted or cold-tolerant microorganisms. In this work, the ability to utilize phenol, methanol and ...
