Journal ArticleDOI
Chromium toxicity in plants.
TL;DR: The potential of plants with the capacity to accumulate or to stabilize Cr compounds for bioremediation of Cr contamination has gained interest in recent years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interactions of chromium with microorganisms and plants
Carlos Cervantes,Jesús Campos-García,Silvia Devars,Félix Gutiérrez-Corona,Herminia Loza-Tavera,Juan Carlos Torres-Guzmán,Rafael Moreno-Sánchez +6 more
TL;DR: The interactions of bacteria, algae, fungi and plants with Cr and its compounds are summarized and proposed as potential biotechnological tools for the bioremediation of Cr pollution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chromium reduction in Pseudomonas putida.
TL;DR: Neither sulfate nor nitrate affected chromate reduction either in vitro or with intact cells, and Chromate reductase activity was associated with soluble protein and not with the membrane fraction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Copper resistance mechanisms in bacteria and fungi
TL;DR: Bacterial mechanisms of copper resistance are related to reduced copper transport, enhanced efflux of cupric ions, or copper complexation by cell components, and the metallothionein chelation mechanism has been approached with molecular detail.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resistance to arsenic compounds in microorganisms
TL;DR: Bacterial plasmids conferring arsenic resistance encode specific efflux pumps able to extrude arsenic from the cell cytoplasm thus lowering the intracellular concentration of the toxic ions.
