Actinobacteria Consortia as Lindane Bioremediation Tool for Liquid and Soil Systems
(CRC Press - Taylor & Francis Group, 2013)
The current study was carried out to compare lindane degradation by pure and mixed cultures of indigenous Streptomyces strains. Cell free extracts were assayed for potentiating dechlorinase activity and, based on these ...
Lindane uptake and degradation by aquatic Streptomyces sp. strain M7
(Elsevier, 2007-03)
Five actinomycete strains isolated from pesticide-contaminated sediments were able to grow in the presence of 10 μg l-1 lindane, an organochlorine pesticide. The strain growing best in the presence of lindane as the only ...
Influence of hyperthyroidism on lindane-induced hepatotoxicity in the rat
(1995)
Parameters related to hepatic oxidative stress, cell injury, phagocytic activity, and liver histology were studied in control rats and in animals subjected to l-3,3′,5-triiodothyronine (T3) and/or lindane administration. ...
Determination of lindane leachability in soil-biosolid systems and its bioavailability in wheat plants
(2011)
The leachability of lindane from different biosolid amended soils was determined and compared to its bioavailability. Sand, soil, and a mixture of soil-sand (1:1 w/w) were spiked with lindane, blended with different amounts ...
Lindane‐induced liver oxidative stress: Respiratory alterations and the effect of desferrioxamine in the isolated perfused rat liver
(1989)
The effects of lindane administration (25–60 mg kg−1 for 24 h) on hepatic oxygen consumption were studied in the isolated perfused rat liver, in the absence and presence of the iron‐chelator free‐radical scavenger ...
Maize plants (Zea mays) root exudates enhance lindane removal by native Streptomyces strains
(Elsevier, 2012-01)
The organochlorine pesticide (OP) lindane was removed from minimal medium (MM) by two Streptomyces native strains, while growing on maize root exudates (REs) as a primary carbon and energy source. REs supported 55 and 35% ...
Lindane Removal Using Streptomyces Strains and Maize (Zeas mays) Plants
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2013)
The organochlorine pesticide (OP) lindane was removed from minimal medium (MM) by two Streptomyces native strains, while growing on maize root exudates (REs) as a primary carbon and energy source. REs supported 55 and 35% ...
Enhanced lindane removal from soil slurry by immobilized Streptomyces consortium
(Elsevier, 2014-05)
Lindane is a chlorinated insecticide which was used worldwide. Nowadays its persistence, bioaccumulation and toxicity are well known. One of the strategies for its elimination is bioremediation. For this purpose, the use ...
Simultaneous bioremediation of Cr(VI) and lindane in soil by actinobacteria
(Elsevier, 2014-01)
Environments co-contaminated with metals and organic compounds are difficult to remediate. Actinobacteria is an important group of microorganisms found in soils, with high metabolic versatility and potential for bioremediation. ...
Improvement of lindane removal by Streptomyces sp. M7 by using stable microemulsions
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2017-10)
Lindane is an organochlorine pesticide which persists in the environment and can cause serious health problems due to its chlorinated and hydrophobic nature. Microemulsions are isotropic and macroscopically homogeneous ...
