Metal contamination of a few aquatic, atmospheric, and soil ecosystems has increased ever
since the industrial revolution, owing to discharge of such elements via the effluents of some …

Studies were carried out on interaction of Trichoderma viride with copper and reports
bioaccumulation as a mechanism of copper tolerance during growth. There was a marked …

The effect of long-term copper acclimation of the freshwater green algae
Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata to copper was investigated using different physiological …

The concentrations of Zn in the sediment of a polluted river at the Serdang Industrial Area
were determined. These polluted sediment samples revealed high level of Zn (219. 27 µg/g) …

Microalgae have been proven efficient biological vectors for heavy metal uptake. In order to
further study their biosorption potential, a strain of Desmodesmus pleiomorphus (L) was …

The uptake of cadmium and responses to this metal were studied in growing Rhodotorula
sp. Y11. In presence of cadmium, Y11 showed a similar lag phase with decreased μmax in …

Heavy metal contamination of aquatic ecosystems has been increasing in recent times,
owing to disposal of such pollutants in effluents. Their presence to excessive levels leads to …

A total of 47 cultures of Aspergillus representing 13 species were screened for their ability to
tolerate 7.5 mM Pb 2+ and 2 mM Cu 2+, all of which were positive, with growth of 31 of the …

Isolated Trichoderma atroviride from Cu-polluted river sediment at the Serdang Industrial
Area was studied under in vitro conditions to understand the mechanisms that allowed the …

Abstract Effects of zinc on growth, cell morphology, oxidative stress responses and zinc
removal activity of two common phytoplankton species, Monoraphidium pusillum (Printz) …
