Abstract
This study investigates the potential of microorganisms for bioremediation of heavy metal-contaminated sites in Baku, Azerbaijan. Over a three- month period, research focused on isolating and characterizing indigenous microbial strains with the ability to detoxify pollutants, improving local environmental health. A combination of microbiological, biochemical, and genetic analyses was used to identify and evaluate the efficacy of species such as Pseudomonas in heavy metal reduction. The findings highlight that these microorganisms significantly lowered contaminant levels, suggesting that microbial bioremediation is a viable and eco-friendly approach for environmental restoration in urban areas.
