Effect of heavy metals on the resistant strain of Pseudomonas luteola isolated from polluted sites in El-Kharga city at New Valley Governorate, Egypt
Journal Title: Journal of Multidisciplinary Sciences - Year 2019, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
In this study, Pseudomonas Z4A2 has been isolated from polluted wastewater of El-Kharga city, New Valley Governorate, Egypt. The bacterial isolate found to be highly resistant to different concentrations of zinc and nickel. The isolated bacterium identified according to 16s rRNA as Pseudomonas luteola Z4A2. Its minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) for Zn2+ and Ni2+ were 700 and 200 ppm, respectively. Growth kinetics, parameters and the protein content of Pseudomonas luteola Z4A2 were determined under Zn2+and Ni2+ stress. The results indicated that the protein content was decreased under a high concentration of heavy metals.
