An investigation on heavy metal tolerance properties of bacteria isolated from textile effluent

Key Points

• Heavy metal tolerance was demonstrated in isolated bacterial strains, indicating potential for bioremediation.
• Notable strains showed significant resistance to heavy metals, particularly lead and chromium during testing.
• Isolation techniques were utilized to extract bacteria from contaminated textile effluent samples for analysis.
• Further studies may enhance understanding of microbial resistance mechanisms and their application in waste treatment.
