Table 1 Summary of strains with the ability to degrade rubber Full size table Degradation of the plastic family Plastic is a broad term that encompasses various polymers, such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and polystyrene (PS). These materials have taken ...
Using biodegradable instead of conventional plastics in agricultural applications promises to help overcome plastic pollution of agricultural soils. However, analytical limitations impede our understanding of plastic biodegradation in soils. Utilizing stable carbon isotope (13C-)labelled poly(butylene succinate)...
Durability and affordability are two main reasons for the widespread consumption of plastic in the world. However, the inability of these materials to undergo degradation has become a significant threat to the environment and human health To address this issue, bioplastics have emerged as a promising...
E4 removed 4.9–28.6% LMWPE films (Mw = 1700–23,700 Da) after 80 days (Yoon et al., 2012). However, there are limited reports on the relatively rapid biodegradation of agricultural PE-based mulching film by microbes. The reports on biodegradation mechanism of C–C backbone plastics such...
