Azoreductase plays an important role in the decolourisation of azo dyes by cleaving the azo bonds in azo dye structure. In view of this, Brevibacillus panacihumi, azo dye-degrading bacteria, was used for decolourisation of Reactive Black 5 (RB5) dye. Decolourisation of RB5 was carried out by growing...
