Textile azo dye decolorizing bacteria were isolated from alkaline Lakes Abaya and Chamo using Reactive Red 239 (RR239) dye. Through subsequent screening process, strain CH12 was selected to investigate the effects of nutrient supplement, DO, pH, temperature, dye concentration and types on decolorization. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain CH12 was identified as <i>Bacillus</i> sp. Decolorization efficiencies were significantly enhanced with carbon (≥98%) and organic nitrogen (∼100% ...[more]
