    Spirulina platensis and Chlorella vulgaris Assisted Bioremediation Heavy Metal Contaminated Aquatic Ecosystem
    Author(s): Avinash R. Nichat1* , S. A. Shaffi2 , V. K. Kakari

    Living organisms require trace amounts of some heavy metals including copper, lead, magnesium, vanadium, zinc etc. Human activities have influenced bio-chemical and geological cycles. Metal ions become toxic in nature when they are beyond tolerance limit. In aquatic ecosystem, fishes and microbes have close, intimate and unseparated contact from the embryonic to adult stage. Bioremediation is therefore an eco-friendly and efficient method of reclaiming environments contaminated with heavy metals by making use of the inherent biological mechanisms of microorganisms and plants to eradicate hazardous contaminants. Microbes play a key role in controlling the speciation and cycling of metals in water. Bio-availability, toxicity and reactivity of metals is greatly influenced to have a better understanding of the major factors that link microb.. View more»
