Resumen:
The class Actinobacteria represents an important component of the microbial population in soils. Their metabolic diversity and specific growth characteristics make them well suited as agents for bioremediation. Actinobacteria have an active role in the removal of xenobiotics heavy metals. Their ability has been demonstrated in culture media and in soil samples, either using pure cultures or consortia of actinobacteria. They have a great adaptability which can be used to benefit the environment. Both, whole cells and their products, have potential application in bioremediation processes.
