    Abstract : The many advantageous abilities of plastics have made them omnipresent in today’s society. However, the low cost of production, light weight, durability and insolubility in water combined with inadequate waste handling have led to a vast and increasing accumulation of plastics in nature, approximated to be over 6 300 million tons (Geyer, Jambeck and Law, 2017, ‘Production, use, and fate of all plastics ever made’, Science Advances, 3(7), pp. READ MORE

  5. 4. Isolation and genomic characterization of three PHA degrading bacteria from the marine environment
