“…Serratia (PL18), isolated from a pitch lake located in Trinidad, was able to tolerate Pb (4 mM), Ni (5 mM), V (9 mM), Se (9 mM) and Zinc sulfate (9 mM) [16]. Moreover, some studies have evaluated the use of S. marcecsens for the degradation of Mo [17,18] and Cr [18,19].…”

This study was undertaken to determine heavy metal resistance and antibiotic susceptibility of three non-pathogenic red pigmented bacteria namely WPRA3, SM11-3j and SC-G18, isolated from marine environments of Malaysia. The bacteria isolates were identified by 16S rRNA sequencing and by biochemical and morphological tests. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of all isolates showed ≥96% similarity to Serratia spp. Antibiotic susceptibility test of isolates was assayed according to the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. All isolates were highly resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics, but were susceptible to quinolone antibiotics. . Isolates WPRA3 and SM11-3j showed higher multiple tolerances to heavy metals. The results obtained indicate that bacteria from marine environments of Malaysia present interesting metabolic activities, which should be studied and explored for potential biotechnological applications.

This study was aimed at assessing the ability of Bacillus sp.ev3 to reduce hexavalent chromium into its trivalent form. Bacillus sp.ev3 could tolerate Cr(6+) (4800 microg/mL), Pb(2+) (800 microg/mL), Cu(2+) (200 microg/mL), Cd(2+) (50 microg/mL), Zn(2+) (400 microg/mL), Ni(2+) (4000 microg/mL) and Hg(2+) (50 microg/mL). Bacillus sp.ev3 showed optimum growth at 37 degrees C and pH at 7. Bacillus sp.ev3 could reduce 91% of chromium from the medium after 96 h and was also capable to reduce 84% chromium from the industrial effluents after 144 h. Cell free extracts of Bacillus sp.ev3 grown in the presence of Cr showed reduction of 70%, 45.6% and 27.4% at concentrations of 10 microg Cr(6+)/mL, 50 microg Cr(6+)/mL and 100 microg Cr(6+)/mL, respectively.
