Abstract |
Bacterial growth inhibition by lead, zinc and cadmium was
measured by using modified Tris minimal medium. The toxicity
against Escherichia coli strain was in the order of zinc> cadmium>
lead, and the Escherichia coli strain overexpressing iron-containing
superoxide dismutase 2 of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) was
found to have resistance to heavy metals. |
