Microbial consortiums of putative degraders of low-density polyethylene-associated compounds in the ocean

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Maria Pinto and colleagues from the University of Technology Sydney have published the research: Microbial Consortiums of Putative Degraders of Low-Density Polyethylene-Associated Compounds in the Ocean, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 21/06/2022
  • what: The authors provide evidence that there are plastic-biofilm dwelling bacteria in the ocean that might have the potential to degrade LDPE-associated compounds and that alkane degradation pathways might be involved. The authors investigated the potential of three PE biofilm communities (here called communities A, B, and C), initially attached to three different plastics collected from . . .
