Encapsulation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain KBN12 decolourizes and bioremediates brilliant blue dye mediated toxicity in mung bean (Vigna radiata L.).

Aim: The aim of this study was to explore the decolourization and bioremediation ability of non-encapsulated and encapsulated Pseudomonas aeruginosa (strain KBN 12) against the azo dye brilliant blue (BB).

Methods And Results: Six efficient BB dye-decolourizing bacteria were isolated from textile dye effluent. The most efficient free cells of P.
