  • Title: [The reduction of Cr(VI) by bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas].
    Author: Dmitrienko GN, Konovalova VV, Shum OA.
    Journal: Mikrobiologiia; 2003; 72(3):370-3. PubMed ID: 12901012.
    Abstract:
    Non-nitrate-reducing collection bacteria from the genus Pseudomonas were found to be able to use hexavalent chromium as a terminal electron acceptor. The reduction of Cr(VI) was accompanied by an increase in the cell biomass. At the Cr(VI) concentrations in the medium lower than 15 mg/l, the non-nitrate-reducing pseudomonads reduced Cr(VI) less efficiently than did denitrifying pseudomonads. In contrast, at the Cr(VI) concentrations higher than 30 mg/l, Cr(VI) was reduced more efficiently by the non-nitrate-reducing pseudomonads than by the denitrifying pseudomonads.
