[The destruction of cyanides and their metal complexes by natural bacterial trains].

Abstract

Natural strains of bacteria of Bacillus and Pseudomonas genera able to destroy cyanides are obtained. Natural strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens B-5040 has a property to destroy high concentration of cyanides (100-200 mg/l) and does not lose the destructive activity in the systems with sufficiently high concentration of mercury (Na3ASO4) compounds (500 mg/l).
