Studies on the Efficiency of Eudrilus eugeniae in the Bioconversion of Tamarind Fruit Shell Waste Mixed with Diclofenac and Bisphenol-A

Abstract: Background: Agricultural chemicals, metals, industrial effluents, plastics, excessive dumping of unused and expired pharmaceutical chemicals etc. contaminate terrestrial, aquatic and aerial environment. The excessive usage of the unwanted chemicals elicits undesirable effects in the non target organism inhabited in the various environments. The soil biota like earthworm faces threats of the environmental contaminants. A number of research works has been carried out to study the impact of certain environmental … Show more

“…Eudrilus eugeniae The earthworm, Eudrilus eugeniae shown in Fig 3 belongs to the phylum Annelida, class: Clitellata, and family: Eudrilidae, which is commonly known as the "African Night Crawler". The worm is a great model for cell and molecular biological experiments[20]. In this research earthworm, Eudrilus eugiensis was purchased from Ganapathi Nursery, Upputhodu, Somvarpet, and Coorg.…”

“…Among other soil-dwelling organisms, earthworms occupy an essential place in the soil ecosystem as they control key soil processes such as pedogenesis, soil structure, nutrient cycling, decomposition of organic matter, water infiltration and bioremediation of toxic chemicals (Giraddi et al, 2008;Kumar et al, 2020). Because of their close contact with the soil and sensitivity to soil pollution, they are particularly affected and can be considered as potential bio-indicators of soil pollution (Yang et al, 2017;Ramesh et al, 2022). The main route of exposure of earthworms to these metals is either through their highly permeable skin or by ingestion of soil particles (Jatwani et al, 2016).…”
