| cadmium biosorption by sphingomonas paucimobilis biomass. | among microorganisms isolated in bangkok, the gram-negative bacterium sphingomonas paucimobilis exhibited the greatest cadmium tolerance. it was able to survive in the medium containing cadmium as high as 200 mg/l. however, concentrations of cadmium at 25-200 mg/l inhibited its growth. the biosorption properties for cadmium of this bacterial biomass and the effects of environmental factors (i.e., biosorbent type, initial ph and biosorbent concentration) on the cadmium biosorption were explored. ... | 2002 | 12146636 |
