Bioremediation of Lead by Indigenous Bacteria Isolated from an Idol Immersion Site (Lead remediation by Pseudomonas)

Heavy metal contamination particularly lead (Pb) is a fast-emerging environmental issue around the globe with special concern in the areas where idol immersion is a major activity. The current study was undertaken to isolate and characterize a lead-resistant bacteria from Prempura Ghat, Bhopal, being one of the major idol immersion sites. From the surface, eleven bacterial colonies were isolated, out of which two demonstrated tolerance up to a significant level with lead concentration. The most
