Reduction of hexavalent chromium by the earthworm Eisenia foetida (Savigny).

A Arillo1, F Melodia.   

Abstract

Several metabolic systems in Eisenia foetida competent to achieve an intracellular Cr(VI) reduction are described. Evidence that earthworms act as effective scavengers of hexavalent chromium from the environment is also provided. Results suggest that E. foetida may play an important role during occasional Cr(VI) pollution of soils.
