Oxidative Stress, Chromium-Resistance and Uptake by Fungi: Isolated from Industrial Wastewater
ABSTRACT Trichosporon asahii and Rhodotorula mucilaginosa isolated from wastewater effluents were identified as chromium-resistant yeasts. Cr(VI) concentrations at 8 mM and 6 mM were inhibitory for R. mucilaginosa and T. asahii. Remarkably elevated GSH (69.88 ± 10.01) and GSSG (11.24 ± 0.96) was obs...
