Mercury (II) removal by resistant bacterial isolates and mercuric (II) reductase activity in a new strain of Pseudomonas sp. B50A

•Eight Gram-negatives bacterial isolates were resistant to high concentrations of mercury.•The isolated Pseudomonas sp. B50A removed 86% of the mercury present in the medium.•In the crude extract of this strain was detected mercuric (II) reductase activity.•The isolate and the enzyme detected were e...
