Degradation of a tannery and textile dye, Navitan Fast Blue S5R by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (2003, background): “Azo dyes, the largest and most versatile class of synthetic dyes, have wide range of applications in the textile, leather, paper, food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries (Paszczynski et al. 1992; Stolz 2001 ).”
Textile Organic Dyes – Characteristics, Polluting Effects and Separation/Elimination Procedures from Industrial Effluents – A Critical Overview (2012, background): “However, in the presence of specific oxygen-catalysed enzymes called azo reductases, some aerobic bacteria are able to reduce azo compounds and produce aromatic amines (Stolz, 2001).”
Biodegradation of textile azo dyes by a facultative Staphylococcus arlettae strain VN-11 using a sequential microaerophilic/aerobic process. (2009, background): “They are considered as xenobiotic compounds that are very recalcitrant to biodegradation processes (Zollinger, 1991; Stolz, 2001).”
Non-conventional low-cost adsorbents for dye removal: a review. (2006, methodology): “Biomass Decolorization and/or bioadsorption of dye wastewater by (dead or living) biomass, white-rot fungi and other microbial cultures was the subject of many studies reviewed in several recent papers (Aksu, 2005; Pearce et al., 2003; McMullan et al., 2001; Fu and Viraraghavan, 2001a; Stolz, 2001; ”
Microaerophilic–aerobic sequential decolourization/biodegradation of textile azo dyes by a facultative Klebsiella sp. strain VN-31 (2009, background): “The reaction takes place at neutral pH values and is extremely unspecific [30].”
Adsorption of methylene blue on low-cost adsorbents: a review. (2010, background): “[38] A.”
Microbial decolorization and degradation of synthetic dyes: a review (2013, background): “These resting cell cultures presumably become rapidly oxygen depleted, and the reactions observed should therefore be viewed as an anaerobic incubation (Stolz 2001).”
Adding Molecules to Food, Pros and Cons: A Review on Synthetic and Natural Food Additives. (2014, background): “Regarding the azo group, it has many different colors, and all of them display the functional group R-N = N-R′, in which R and R′ can be either aryl or alkyl (Stolz 2001; Chudgar and Oakes 2003).”
Enhanced biodegradation and detoxification of disperse azo dye Rubine GFL and textile industry effluent by defined fungal-bacterial consortium (2012, background): “Compared with physical and chemical processes, bio-friendly approaches have been the main focus for remediation of dyecontaminated wastewater since they require lower costs, are ecofriendly and produce fewer toxic metabolites (Kobayashi and Rittmann, 1982; Stolz, 2001).”
Microbial transformation of xenobiotics for environmental bioremediation (2009, background): “Bacteria that are able to reduce azo dyes aerobically in a co-metabolic pathway can also use these dyes as sole source of carbon and energy (Yatome et al., 1993; Dykes et al., 1994; Stolz, 2001).”
