Identification of locally isolated reactive black 5 decolorizing bacteria

Seven bacterial strains were successfully isolated from textile wastewater. They were screened for their ability to degrade azo dyes including Reactive Black 5 and Acid Orange 7. The screening showed that the decolourization of Reactive Black 5 was best performed under facultative anaerobic conditio...
