Abstract Heavy metal pollution is the major cause of detrimental environmental pollution and human health. This is especially observed in saline habitats where conventional bioremediation methods are insufficient. This study investigates halophilic organisms' capacity to heal heavy metal contamination. The samples for halophilic organism recovery were isolated from the Thrissur and the heavy metal samples were prepared in different concentrations (100ppm, 200ppm, 500ppm, and 1000ppm). The isolated samples were incubated with the SGYE medium and appropriate colonies were separated, The isolate was analyzed for the heavy metal remediating properties by analyzing the growth of the halophilic organism in the presence of heavy metals and screening whether it can grow in different concentrations of heavy metals. Then the isolated organism tends to nucleic acid configuration for the profiling by MALDI-TOF. The strain resists various metals, and the growth pattern is studied using Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). The investigation indicated that the organism can degrade the metals in the high percentile.
