Metal(loid)-contaminated soils as a source of culturable heterotrophic aerobic bacteria for remediation applications

Heavy metal-contaminated soils are a serious environmental problem. Herein, the culturable heterotrophic bacterial community present on two metal(loid)-contaminated sites in the Northern Portugal was investigated. The bacterial counts ranged from 5.96 to 7.69 and 7.04 to 7.51 (log CFUg(-1) soil) in...
