Abstract

Malachite green (MG) dye commonly use in textile and paper printing industry to a great extent. Textile effluent released from industries including dyes must be treated before release into the environment due to its toxic nature. In present study, newly isolated bacterial species was able to decolorize MG dye (100%) in 1 h at shaking condition and 94% at static condition. 16S rRNA analysis revealed an isolate as Bacillus sp. AAV. Lignin peroxidase, laccase and tyrosinase enzymes from Bacillus sp. AAV showed significant increased activity during decolourisation. There was 138, 369 and 164% trek in activity of LiP, laccase and tyrosinase after MG decolourization, respectively. Bacillus sp. AAV could decolourise MG efficiently at alkaline pH (8-10) and at 40°C temperature. Biodegradation was monitored by UV-VIS spectrophotometer. Gas chromatography-Mass spectroscopy data was used to propose the degradation pathway of MG dye. The newly isolated Bacillus sp. AAV was able to decolourise ten various types of dyes and textile dye effluent. Phytotoxicity test by using seeds of wheat and sorghum was also carried out to check toxicity of MG dye metabolites. The study reveals that there was no toxicity with respect to tested seeds. This study suggests that Bacillus sp. AAV could be a useful microorganism or its enzyme system for textile dyes and effluent treatment.
