The present study demonstrates the removal of three toxic heavy metals (lead, cadmium and nickel) by the bacterial strain Arthrobacter phenanthrenivorans from polluted water. The removal efficiency of heavy metals was recorded to be highest in case of lead (79.91%), followed by nickel (47.62%) and cadmium (34.05%). Furthermore, surfactant production by A. phenanthrenivorans was optimized, which is useful for different purposes like metal and oil removal from water. Partial characterization of the semi-purified surfactant was done for thermal stability, pH tolerance and metal ions sensitivity. Antioxidant enzyme activity (catalase and superoxide dismutase) and stress marker-malondialdehyde level were also determined in the presence of these three heavy metals.Keywords

In this study altogether 109 autochthonous gut bacteria were screened from 4 fish species (Labeo rohita, Labeo bata, Catla catla and Puntius javanicus), of which 13 isolates displayed antagonism to 4 fish potent pathogens, namely Aeromonas salmonicida, Aeromonas hydrophila, Pseudomonas fluorescens and Aeromonas sobria. Eight promising isolates were further evaluated for extracellular enzyme production, non-hemolytic activity, bile tolerance and identified by 16S rRNA sequencing. Strains CCF7 (identified as Bacillus sp.), CCH9 and PJH1 (identified as two strains of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens) exhibited high score in antagonism assay and fulfilled other probiotic criteria, including safety aspects. However, application of these probiotics in aquaculture industries requires in vivo experiments and other information like immune modulating efficiency and binding ability on gut.Keywords
