Description:
A Cr(VI) resistant bacterial strain SDCr-5, identified as Ochrobactrum intermedium on the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequencing, was tolerant to high concentrations of Cr(VI) up to 15mgml^-^1 in acetate minimal medium. O. intermedium SDCr-5 reduced Cr(VI) under a wide range of concentrations from 100 to 1500@mgml^-^1 and reduction was optimum at 37^oC and pH 7. It reduced 200 and 721@mgml^-^1 Cr(VI) within 72 and 96h, respectively. The rate of Cr(VI) reduction increased with concentration from 100 to 1500@mg ml^-^1. The presence of heavy metal cations such as Cu^2^+, Co^2^+, Mn^2^+ and Ni^2^+ stimulated Cr(VI) reduction. Strain SDCr-5 might be useful for Cr(VI) detoxification under a wide range of environmental conditions.
