Tolerance and decolorization potential of duckweed (Lemna gibba) to C.I. Basic Green 4

Abstract: With growing human culture and industrialization, many pollutants are being introduced into aquatic ecosystems. In recent years, dyes have become a major water pollutant used in the manufacture of paints and other production purposes. In this research, the potential of duckweed (Lemna gibba) plant was investigated spectrophotometrically as an obvious bioagent for the biological decolorization of the organic dye C.I. Basic Green 4 (Malachite Green, BG4). Photosynthetic efficiency analysis showed that the photos… Show more

“…About 120 ml of enzyme extract, 80 ml of 500 mM H 2 O 2 , and 2.8 ml of potassium phosphate buffer were used in the reaction mixture (50 mM). The quantity of enzyme required to reduce 1.0 mM of H 2 O 2 per minute was used to define one unit of catalase activity (Singh et al, 2021 ).…”

“…Toxic organic dyes could be used in a variety of industries, including textiles, leather, plastic, paper, paint, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals ( Wang et al, 2018 ), ( Singh et al, 2021 ). Direct contact of the dye with the organisms can lead to serious health problems such as mental health problems, eye damage and central nervous system.…”
