Abstract

Presence of pollutants in the Chapala Lake has been reported, which has become an issue of public health concern for the communities nearby, adapted bacteria that survive within the contaminated water column, require of a specialized metabolism in order to live. From this perspective, the isolation of chromium resistant bacteria from a sampling site at Las Palmas Michoacán, has been accomplished; 4 strains with specific morphologic characteristics were identified and their resistance to Cr(VI) and its degradation were evaluated, as well as their potential to reduce the Methyl Red colorant. The isolated strains from the lake sediments, were capable to resist concentrations up to 1200 mg/l of Chromate (CrO42-) in a liquid medium, and also a Cr(VI) reduction range from 46.5 to 52.3 percent, after a 72 hour exposure, at a 50 mg/l Chromate concentration. Methyl Red degradation were observed with percentage ranges from 16.9 to 83.4, after a 7 hour exposure at a 50 mg/l concentration of Methyl Red. The isolated bacterial strains have the potential for being used in the treatment of contaminated waters with azo colorants and Hexavalent Chromium.
