Abstract

In the present Study total 10 heavy metal resistant E. coli were isolated from sewage of industrial effluents from waste water of Khamgaon M1DC area. Against copper, aluminium, iron, nickel and chromium. All the isolates exhibited high resistance to heavy metals with minimum inhibitory concentration for heavy metals ranging from 50 ug / ml to 500 ug / ml. All isolates showed multiple tolerance to heavy metal and were multi antibiotic resistant, heavy metal tolerance test indicated maximum microbial tolerance of E. coli to cromium (480 ug / ml) and lowest to Copper (60 ug / ml).
