Indoleacetic acid production and chromium reduction by cyanobacteria Synechocystis SP. P2A (Chroococcales) immobilized in alginate beads

A simple extrusion method was used to entrap Synechocystis sp.P2A in alginate beads. The viability, growth response and Indoleacetic acid (IAA) production at different pH were studied in alginate immobilized Synechocystis sp.P2A. 2.6% sodium alginate (w/v) and pH-7 was found to be optimum for growth...
