Biosorption of Strontium from Aqueous Solutions by Micrococcus luteus Sr02

Although strontium (Sr 2+ ) is found in soils, sediments and surface waters, there is limited evidence about its biosorption. In this study, a surface water strain being highly tolerant to Sr 2+ was isolated and identified as Micrococcus luteus Sr02 by using 16S rRNA sequencing. Biosorption behavior...

Description
Summary:Although strontium (Sr 2+ ) is found in soils, sediments and surface waters, there is limited evidence about its biosorption. In this study, a surface water strain being highly tolerant to Sr 2+ was isolated and identified as Micrococcus luteus Sr02 by using 16S rRNA sequencing. Biosorption behavior and mechanisms of Sr 2+ by M. luteus Sr02 were investigated through batch experiments, zeta potential measurements, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that M. luteus Sr02 have potential to sorb Sr 2+ and can be used efficiently for the removal of Sr 2+ from aqueous solutions.
