Bioremediation of malachite green dye toxicity under optimized conditions by Rhodotorula mucilaginosa AUMC13567.

ABSTRACT: The escalating impacts of human urbanization and rapid industrial development have resulted in a growing global demand for synthetic textile dyes. Malachite green (MG) dye is a hazardous chromatic compound predominantly utilized as a textile dye, exhibiting a strong affinity for the substrate to which it is applied. When diluted, it serves as antimicrobial agent for fungal and bacterial diseases in fish farms. However, the disposal of textile dyeing wastes pose significant environmental challenges, contaminating soil, surface water, and adversely affecting human health and aquatic life. R. mucilaginosa exhibits robust growth and resistance capabilities even under conditions of nutrient deficiency or external stress. This study focuses on optimizing the malachite green dye degradation abili
