%0 Journal Article %T COMPARATIVE STUDY ON BIOREMEDIATION OF CHROMIUM IN FORTIFIED SOLUTIONS BY VIABLE, BIOSORBENT AND IMMOBILISED CELLS OF Phanerochaete chrysosporium- MTCC787 %A Sumit Pal and Vimala Y. %J International Journal of Microbiology Research %D 2012 %I Bioinfo Publications %X Chromium as a toxic heavy metal is of major concern due to the various health effects on human and as a pollutant to environment. Chromium makes land desolate by forming toxic soluble chromium compounds in soil and water bodies. At present various microorganisms are used for bioremediation of chromium from soil and water bodies. The aim of present work was to bioremediate chromium from synthetic solutions by a white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium (MTCC787) using in form of viable cells, microbial biosorbent (dried cells) and immobilised cells at different physical parameters i.e. pH, temperature and medium with substrates like Citric acid, Tween 80 and EDTA. %K Chromium %K Phanerochaete chrysosporium %K Biosorption %K Viable cells %K Immobilised cells %K Tween 80. %U http://bioinfopublication.org/viewhtml.php?artid=BIA0000353
