Natural and anthropogenic sources of metals in the ecosystem are perpetually increasing; consequently, heavy metal (HM) accumulation has become a major environmental concern. Human exposure to HMs increased dramatically due industrial activities 20th century. Mercury, arsenic lead, chrome, cadmium have been most prevalent that caused human toxicity. Poisonings can be acute or chronic following via water, air, food. The bioaccumulation these results variety toxic effects on various tissues organs. Comparing mechanisms action reveals induce toxicity similar pathways, including production reactive oxygen species, inactivation enzymes, oxidative stress. conventional techniques employed for elimination deemed inadequate when HM concentration is less than 100 mg/L. In addition, methods exhibit certain limitations, secondary pollutants, high demand energy chemicals, reduced cost-effectiveness. As result, employment microbial bioremediation purpose detoxification emerged as viable solution, given microorganisms, fungi bacteria, superior biosorption bio-accumulation capabilities. This review deals with uptake associated HMs, will increase our knowledge their body organs, leading better management poisoning. aims enhance comprehension offer judicious selection remediation technology HMs. Microbial-based solutions sustainable could potentially crucial cost-effective reducing

Water quality depends on its physicochemical and biological parameters. Changes in parameters such as pH, temperature, essential non-essential trace metals water can render it unfit for human use. Moreover, the characteristics of local environment, geological processes, geochemistry, hydrological properties sources also affect quality. Generally, groundwater is utilized drinking purposes all over globe. The surface use industrial purposes. There are several natural anthropogenic activities responsible heavy metal contamination water. Industrial sources, including coal washery, steel industry, food processing plastic processing, metallic work, leather tanning, etc., Domestic agricultural waste hazardous Contaminated with ions like Cr (VI), Cd (II), Pb As (V III), Hg Ni Cu (II) health issues humans, liver failure, kidney damage, gastric skin cancer, mental disorders harmful effects reproductive system. Hence, evaluation removal needed. methods that available from water, but these expensive generate large amounts secondary pollutants. Biological considered cost-effective eco-friendly remediation contaminants In this review, we focused toxic their toxicity bioremediation approaches.
