Subject Area:

Life Sciences

Abstract:

The Trichoderma sp. and Aspergillus nidulans were isolated from soil sample of local landfill in Shivamogga district for check the efficiency of polyethylene degradation. Degradation was monitored by observing weight loss and changes in physical structure by Scanning Electron Microscopy. Organisms were grown on polyethylene without any treatment and polyethylene, which was UV irradiated and incubated with nitric acid at 80oC for 06 days before cultivation. Organisms were able to degrade treated polyethylene more efficiently than untreated polyethylene. Both of these organisms may act as solution for control the problem caused due to polyethylene contamination in nature.
