Cadmium can be effectively reduced by indigenous bacteria, achieving reductions from 0.92 ppm to 0.02 ppm in soil samples.
The most prominent Cd-tolerant bacteria were isolated from Ajibarang, with a population density of 1.8 × 106 CFU/g of soil.
Potential bacterial isolates exhibited a high tolerance to 100 ppm Cd and reduced Cd in liquid media by up to 70.02%.
Isolates identified belong to various species, including Priestia megaterium, showing promise for bioremediation efforts.
