Evaluation of the genetic basis of heavy metal resistance in an isolate from electronic industry effluent
Halomonas BVR 1 isolated from an electronic industry effluent had high level of resistance to heavy metals like cadmium, lead, zinc and to various antibiotics. Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the strain toward cadmium and lead was found to be 200 mg L−1 and 400 mg L−1 respectively, while i...
