With the growing world development there is a big waste generation by agricultural systems, industrial and besides several accidents with different pollutants, such as petrochemical, metal mechanic, leather and footwear, mining, etc, raising concern with the environment environment and more knowledge about their degradation. In this sense, alternatives are sought to try to minimize environmental problems using living organisms and their enzymes in the biodegradation of toxic compounds aimed at its eradication, reduction or transformation into less toxic substances. To evaluate the growth kinetics, survivability and bioreduction, this study used standard bacterial strains of Acetobacter aceti and Micrococcus luteus in medium containing chromium ion (VI). The chromium ion-containing media were made up by dissolving 850 mg of K2Cr2O7, 1 liter adjusted to the desired concentration of 300 mg L-1. The bioprocess was conducted and 250 ml flask type incubator shaker at 32° C for 7 days. Quantification followed the methodology established by Standard Methods (Method 3500 Cr B). Both strains were shown to be capable of reducing the chromium ion concentrations, containing more than 36% rate. The behavior of strains in liquid medium presented constantly growing and showing no interference of chromium ion.

Ethical Guidelines for Journal Publication
The Ciência e Natura journal is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles.
Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.
In particular,
Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review Articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The Authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding Author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all Co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.
Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An Editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the Author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that Authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected Reviewer who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the Editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
