dc.description.abstractHeavy metals pose a serious global threat to the environment. Hence, removing hazardous metals from soil samples has become complicated over the past few years. The current work looked into the remediation of heavy metals from aqueous solutions using a bacterial community and a unique bacterium obtained from metal-contaminated soil. In this investigation, the isolates of Bacillus anthracis A1-7, Bacillus. thuringiensis A1-3, Bacillus. cereus A1-5, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa A-33 actively demonstrated metal tolerances to various tested metals. Furthermore, an in-vitro biosorption study was performed under ideal concentration. The bacterial consortia achieved the highest biosorption effectiveness for Cu & Zn, 92.7% and 90.3%, respectively. When compared with a single bacterium, the group exhibited inferior Pb biosorption (86%). Since then, P. aeruginosa A33 has had the highest Pb biosorption. Finally, a bacterial consortium has devised an intriguing strategy for eliminating Cu and Pb from the polluted medium. P. aeruginosa A33 was found to be a mighty microbe that extracts Zn from polluted water. This metal-tolerant bacterium also exhibited specific proportions of selective commercially available antibiotics, which were analyzed using the Multiple Antibiotic Resistance (MAR) Index. In conclusion, these findings indicated that bacterial consortia composed of four bacterial isolates can remove metals from a metal-polluted medium.en_US
