Screening for potent Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) degrading fungi: optimization of lipase production media and assessment of PET fabric waste degradation
Results demonstrated substantial PET fabric degradation, confirming the efficacy of the fungal strain and the importance of lipase in the biodegradation process and presenting a promising biotechnological approach for mitigating PET pollution through microbial intervention and enzyme optimization.
This study isolated 305 marine-derived microorganisms with potential PET-degrading capability from samples collected from mangrove areas of Zhanjiang and the intertidal zones of Daya Bay, Shenzhen, China, using PET powder as a major carbon source and reveals the genetic basis underlying PET degradation and associated m...
