Exploring integrated bioremediation approaches on detoxification of Hg(II) in aqueous medium through a coupled bioreduction process using Bacillus stercoris (MRM1)

Key Points

• Detoxification of mercury shows significant improvement using a coupled bioreduction process.
• In tests, Bacillus stercoris reduces mercury concentration in aqueous medium by over 80%.
• This study utilizes an integrated bioremediation approach combining biological methods for better results.
• Findings indicate that adopting these methods can help manage mercury pollution in water environments.
