| Abstract | ||
| The presence of inorganic pollutants such as metal ions (Cr+6 and Cr+3) could destroy our environment and ecosystem. To overcome this problem, much attention was directed to the microbial technology. Microbial cells could be tolerated to the toxic effects and decreased their concentration with keeping their viability. Therefore, building up a complementary strategy to study the cell population under the stress of heavy metals. As target resistive organisms, Rhizobium-MAP7-MG214656 and Rhodotorula ALT72 were used. The tested Rhizobium strain showed higher ability of removal heavy metals and more resistive to metals ions. So using the two strains especially Rhizobium-MAP7-MG214656 support the removal of heavy metals (Cr+6 and Cr+3). | ||
