Indonesian beach plastisphere bacteria consortium degrading HDPE plastic at 7.14% efficiency
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan efektifitas penggunaan konsorsium bakteri plastisphere dibandingkan dengan isolat tunggal dalam mendegradasi plastik HDPE. Perbedaan efektifitas diukur berdasarkan analisis pengurangan berat plastik, analisis bakteri permukaan plastik dan analisis permukaan menggunakan Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Penelitian ini termasuk dalam jenis eksperimen dengan proses isolasi bakteri pada sampah plastik yang ditemukan pada Pantai Sadranan, Gunungkidul, diseleksi berdasarkan kemampuan enzimatik lignolitik serta tiga isolat terbaik diuji kemampuan biodegradasinya dalam bentuk konsorsium serta isolat tunggal. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya persentase degradasi tertinggi sebesar 7,14% ± 0,59 ditunjukkan oleh perlakuan konsorsium sedangkan perlakuan isolat tunggal H5, H9, dan H10 secara berturut sebesar 1,55% ± 0,5, 5,62% ± 0,19, dan 3,11% ± 0,49. Tiga bakteri plastisphere dikarakterisasi dan identifikasi dan menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 2 isolat dengan indeks similaritas ≥ 80% terhadap acuan Arthrobacter sp. dan satu isolat dengan similaritas 68% terhadap acuan Micrococcus sp. Berdasarkan hasil yang diperoleh, penggunaan konsorsium bakteri sebagai agen biodegradasi efektif dalam mendegradasi plastik HDPE dibandingkan dengan penggunaan isolat tunggal.

Microplastics under siege: Biofilm-forming marine bacteria from the microplastisphere and their role in plastic degradation
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers isolated and screened bacteria from microplastics collected along coastal beaches of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands to assess their ability to degrade plastic. One bacterial strain achieved over 10% degradation of low-density polyethylene, with surface analysis confirming physical breakdown of the plastic. The study suggests that naturally occurring marine bacteria colonizing microplastics may play a role in plastic biodegradation in ocean environments.
Karakterisasi sampah plastik yang terakumulasi di Pelabuhan Timur, Kamal, Bangkalan dan aktivitas degradasinya oleh bakteri indigenous air limbah cucian garam (bittern)
AI summary Read the abstract
Indonesian researchers characterized plastic waste accumulating at Timur Port in Bangkalan, finding LDPE dominance at all sampling stations, and demonstrated that indigenous bacteria from salt-washing wastewater (bittern) achieved measurable plastic biodegradation with an average weight loss from 0.0019g to 0.0012g. This study highlights the potential of locally sourced microbial communities as cost-effective biological agents for reducing coastal plastic accumulation and associated microplastic fragmentation in harbor environments.
