Abstract:
Our environment is going to be polluted and polluted day by day due to human
activities. And pollutants are hazardous for life. Pollution in environment is of serious
environmental concern and interest in microorganisms capable of detoxifying environmental
pollutant is of practical significance. Scientists are using different techniques to remediate
environmental pollutants such as bioremediation. For this we need microorganisms capable
of detoxifying environmental pollutants. The objective of this study is to isolate and optimize
the growth conditions of microorganisms that showed high potential for degradation of
environmental pollutants. Different methods and techniques are used for the isolation of
different microorganisms.
Keywords: pollutants, microorganism, isolation, enrichment, culture, media.
