Solubilization of zinc salts by a bacterium isolated from the air environment of a tannery
Open accessAbstract
Airborne bacteria isolated from a tannery air environment were screened for the property of solubilization of insoluble zinc oxide and zinc phosphate. Out of 10 strains tested, a strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CMG 823) showed the best solubilization and solubilized both zinc oxide and zinc phosphate. Colonies of the bacterium produced clear haloes on solid medium which contained these insoluble metal compounds, but only when glucose was provided as a carbon source. Solubilization of zinc oxide and phosphate was accompanied by an increase in the H+ concentration of the medium, probably a consequence of the production of 2-ketogluconic acid.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
