Özet
Pesticides do not only pollute the soil and water in the areas where they are used but are also transported to very distant areas by biological and physical means. Especially pesticides with slow biological degradation rates and pesticides that dissolve in lipid accumulate in the bioecosystems and are harmful to all living organisms. Some pesticides are carcinogenic, mutagenic, and adversely affect the nervous system. In general, the degradation of a pesticide takes more than one enzymatic step, and transformation products can also be obtained during this process. Bioremediation is a new technology that uses living organisms to remediate pesticide-polluted areas. Comparing microbial bioremediation with traditional methods such as physical and chemical methods, it is more feasible with lower-cost promising strategies that can treat environmental contaminations. Fast-growing, economic viability, and easy activities make remediation by bacteria the most basic form of removal pollutants. Bacillus sp., Mycobacterium sp., Pseudomonas sp., Pandoraea sp., Klebsiella sp., Cyanobacterium sp., Burkholderia cepacia, Streptomyces consortium are microbes used for pesticides bioremediation. In this section, after giving information about DNA damage caused by pesticides, we discuss bacteria-related bioremediation of pesticides.
