Overview

Analysis reveals substantial PHA production in bacteria from diverse environments in Nepal, suggesting bioplastics may be a viable alternative to plastic.

Key Points

  • PHA production was maximized, yielding 34.99% with isolate Ht3d under optimal conditions.
  • Four bacterial isolates produced significant levels of PHA, including Bacillus circulans and Staphylococcus aureus.
  • The study utilized specific staining methods to screen and confirm PHA accumulation in environmental samples.
  • Characterization techniques confirmed the presence of PHA, further supporting its potential as a sustainable bioplastic.
