Keeping in tune the global developments we are creating an institutional repository using DSpace Software (Digital Library Software). We are archiving institutional knowledge like, faculty papers, theses, and dissertations in PDF format at DSpace. Students can access this digital information anywhere in the campus.

| Abstract: | Five halotolerant bacteria were isolated from saline soil of Gujarat. Their identification and characterization with respect to optimum pH and salt concentration, and metal tolerance was carried out. Among all isolates Virgibacillus marismortui exhibited better metal tolerance/resistance. In certain cases stimulatory effect of metal ions on growth was also observed. Such organisms can serve as a good model for study of stress response among prokaryotes, and can also be explored for their potential of bioremediation of metal polluted saline sites with alkaline pH. |
