Abstract

Contaminated rivers represent an interesting source of microorganisms capable of degrading different substrates, considering candidates for isolation and purification processes used in contaminated water. The strategy of bioremediation technologies is the use of different metabolic pathways and increased degradation of native processes to eliminate or reduced the contaminating substances. The isolates were monitored in medium contained the different substrates (carbohydrates, proteins and glycerol). Nineteen bacterial isolates from the three monitored water bodies were obtained, the percentage of capacity to assimilate strains with different carbohydrates varied depending on the compound, 100% of the strains degraded dextrose and sucrose, degraded 86% starch, 66% casein and none of the isolates showed hydrolysis of gelatin and lipase production. Results that support combined efforts being made in the search for technologies more for clean water treatment, as well as the conservation of this resource.
