Astaxanthin Based Indicator For Light Metals In Haematococcus pluvialis
Pollution of heavy metal was concerned as a critical and crucial issue with regards to environment biotechnology and agriculture biotechnology. A high concentration of heavy metal had been acknowledged as toxic for all organisms. In this case, toxicity of chromium would inhibit ion of enzymatic acti...

Pollution of heavy metal was concerned as a critical and crucial issue with regards to environment biotechnology and agriculture biotechnology. A high concentration of heavy metal had been acknowledged as toxic for all organisms. In this case, toxicity of chromium would inhibit ion of enzymatic activity, carcinogenic and so on.

Therefore for my study, mycoremediation would be used to reduce the heavy metal contamination from soil and environment. Therefore, P. ostreatus was decided to be used to remove the heavy metal.
