Biochemical changes of fresh water cyanobacteria Dolichospermum flos-aquae NTMS07 to chromium-induced stress with special reference to antioxidant enzymes and cellular fatty acids.

This investigation examined the efficiency of Dolichospermum flos-aquae NTMS07 in the removal of Cr(VI) from exposure water at various concentrations (2.5, 5, 7.5, 10 mg/L) over different time intervals of contact (1-5 days).

Oxidative stress response and fatty acid changes associated with bioaccumulation of chromium [Cr(VI)] by a fresh water cyanobacterium Chroococcus sp.

Cr(VI) at 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 mg/l was removed over 1-5 days by a freshwater cyanobacterium, Chroococcus sp.
