Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The present study was carried out to degrade the textile Reactive azo dyes by using bacteria isolated from dye contaminated soil. The effect of pH, temperature, carbon, nitrogen souces, inoculum size and incubation time was studied with an aim to determine the optimal conditions required for maximum decolorization. The bacterial strains used in the study were Bacillus licheniformis and Pseudomonas putida. The optimum pH for decolorization of RR 195 by P. putida was 7.0. It shows good decolorization efficiency even in alkaline region. The optimum temperature was 37°C. Glucose and Yeast extract has emerged as the ideal carbon and nitrogen sources for both bacteria. In different inoculum size and incubation time evaluated, 3.0% v/v and 120 hrs appeared to highest percentage of decolorization process by both bacterial strains.
