Our studies showed that both dead and live cells of M. amorphae CCNWGS0123 are effective absorbents for copper removal from aqueous solution. The removal of copper increased significantly by increasing the pH up to 5.0, agitation speed 150 rpm and temperature 28 C. Equilibrium was reached within 30 min. The absorption isotherms could be well fitted by the Langmuir equation followed by the Freundlich equation. The highest removal of initial copper concentration was achieved at a dosage of 100 mg/L and the highest biosorption capacity was found at an initial concentration of 0.5 g/L Cu (II)....

Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2011 in the subject Veterinary medicine, grade: none, course: Health Science, language: English, abstract: Poultry provide globally important sources of animal protein and are amongst the most intensively reared of all livestock species. Diseases of poultry are therefore of major concern, both locally and on an international scale. Poultry production have been brought to the edge, because of the large numbers of infectious diseases outbreaks; that strikes the poultry farms from time to time in the absence of good hygiene. It is also important to...
