Due to industrial development, the amount and variety of hazardous substances added to the environment has increasing drastically. A significant number of synthetic compounds which are not related to natural ones persist in the environment and create health hazardous for human beings. Bacillus subtilis was isolated from Match box industrial effluent disposal site. It was characterized and exploited for its dye degradation potential on synthetic dyes (Acid scarlet 3R Conc., Brown Ex – 399, Crystal violet, Green G Conc., Swiss pink) under static condition dose.

Abstract


Due to industrial development, the amount and variety of hazardous substances added to the environment has increasing drastically. A significant number of synthetic compounds which are not related to natural ones persist in the environment and create health hazardous for human beings. Bacillus subtilis was isolated from Match box industrial effluent disposal site. It was characterized and exploited for its dye degradation potential on synthetic dyes (Acid scarlet 3R Conc., Brown Ex – 399, Crystal violet, Green G Conc., Swiss pink) under static condition dose.
