Determination of growth pattern of NR5 and biosorption potentials under in vitro conditions
Based on MIC results out of 16 potentials As tolerant bacteria NR5 was selected for a batch culture study over the period of 7 days and were grown in presence of 90 mgL-1 As(V) in nutrient broth (NB) medium. NB without bacteria served as control 1 and NB without As served as control 2. All the flasks were incubated on a rotary shaker and O.D. was measured every 2 hours, and growth was recorded against a reference.
