All the isolates exhibited high resistance to heavy metals with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for heavy metals ranging from 100µg/ml to 1200µg/ml. All isolates showed multiple tolerances to heavy metal and were multi antibiotic resistant. Heavy Metal Tolerance Test indicated maximum microbial tolerance of&nbsp;<em>Pseudomonas</em>sp (Ps-6&amp;9) to Nickel (400 µg/ml) and no growth was found at 200 µg/ml to Zinc. All the Pseudomonas isolates were found to have a wide range of multi-drug and multi-metal resistant property indicating the tannery waste effluents are highly enriched which supports and spread of Antibiotics and heavy Metal tolerant microbes in the environment.</p> ER -
