Journal ArticleDOI
Use of Algae for Removing Heavy Metal Ions From Wastewater: Progress and Prospects
S.K. Mehta,J.P. Gaur +1 more
TL;DR: Commercial application of algal technology for metal removal from wastewaters, emphasis should be given to selection of strains with high metal sorption capacity, adequate understanding of sorption mechanisms, and development of low-cost methods for cell immobilization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phycology and heavy-metal pollution
TL;DR: All heavy metals, including those that are essential micronutrients (e.g. copper, zinc, etc.), are toxic to algae at high concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidative stress in Scenedesmus sp. during short- and long-term exposure to Cu2+ and Zn2+.
TL;DR: The study shows that Scenedesmus sp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heavy‐metal‐induced proline accumulation and its role in ameliorating metal toxicity in Chlorella vulgaris
S.K. Mehta,J.P. Gaur +1 more
TL;DR: A protective effect of proline on metal toxicity through inhibition of lipid peroxidation is shown, which was triggered within a few hours of metal treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between copper- and zinc-induced oxidative stress and proline accumulation in Scenedesmus sp.
B.N. Tripathi,J.P. Gaur +1 more
TL;DR: The present study demonstrates that proline possibly acts by detoxifying reactive oxygen species, mainly hydroxyl radicals, rather than by improving the antioxidant defense system under metal stress.
