English Abstract
Present study performed to evaluate The effect of different carbon and nitrogen sources on copper uptake by three strains of E.coli This study aims to enhance the copper uptake capacity of bacteria from the heavy metals contaminated water.
Using E.
coli (E.
coli : pUC8 : 16 and E.
coli : pUC9) ttansfarmed with the two plasmids, pUC8:16 and pUC9 in the cell pre-grown on different carbon and nitrogen sources afforded comparable levels of copper uptake by Escherichia coli.
These results clearly indicate the constitutive copper uptake in the three strains with varied degrees.
Previously, no such investigations have been made, particularly using bacterial hemoglobin (VHb), carbon and nitrogen sources.
The type of either carbon or nitrogen sources control the level of the copper uptake mechanisms.
Also, irrespective of the strain, carbon and nitrogen sources used, the three types of copper sources behave similarly.
Further research studies can be attempted using other carbon and nitrogen sources to investigate their effect on copper and heavy metals biosorption and bioaccumulation by other gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
