Chromium used in the electro plating and tanning industries causes environmental pollution
through the generation of effluent. Various methods such as precipitation–flocculation …

This study reports the biosorption of Cr (VI) by chemically modified biomass of Rhizopus
nigricans and the possible mechanism of Cr complexation to the adsorbent. The cell wall of …

Fifteen fungal strains were isolated from arsenic contaminated (range 9.45–15.63 mg kg− 1)
agricultural soils from the state of West Bengal, India. Five fungal strains were belonged to …

Fungi can accumulate metal and radionuclide species by physico-chemical and biological
mechanisms including extracellular binding by metabolites and biopolymers, binding to …

The potential use of the free and immobilized mycelia (in carboxymethylcellulose (CMC)) of
Lentinussajor-caju to remove hexavalent form of chromium ions, Cr (VI), from aqueous …

The biosorption behaviors and mechanisms of a novel exopolysaccharide (EPS), which is
secreted by a mesophilic bacterium (namely Wangia profunda (SM-A87)) isolated from deep …

Microbial biomass provides available ligand groups on which metal ions bind by different
mechanisms. Biosorption of these elements from aqueous solutions represents a …

Biosorption of heavy metal ions by fungi is an emerging technology with a potential for
treating mineral processing waste water. This paper studies the possibility of using a macro …

Duck intestinal homogenate isolate Enterococcus faecalis DU10 produced
exopolysaccharide (EPS)(840 mg/L) in MRS medium (35° C, pH 6.5), was characterized for …

Bioremediation is an environmentally-benign and cost-effective approach to removing
arsenic from contaminated areas. A fungal strain hyper-tolerant to arsenic was isolated from …
