Abstract
Bioaccumulation and biosorption of various nickel salts by Serratia marcescens (NCIM 2078) were investigated Biosorption of nickel was found maximum for the nickel nitrate and nickel chloride as 28.08 and 25.51 mg-1 nickel was obtained in dry biomass of S. marcescens, respectively. The possible role of pigment prodigiosin in uptake of nickel is discussed.
