Summary

Researchers determined the optimal growth conditions (pH, temperature, inoculum volume, incubation time) for the bacterium Kytococcus sedentarius isolated from landfill soil, finding it can grow using nylon plastic as its sole carbon and energy source. The study contributes to identifying bacteria with potential for biodegrading plastic waste.

Polymers

This study aimed to determine the optimal conditions for the growth of Kytococcuc sedentarius bacteria isolated from landfill soil in Anbar province using nylon bags as the only source of carbon and energy, used in liquid nylon bag medium in experiments to determine optimal conditions for growth, the best pH at 7 PH, the best temperature at 30 °C, the best vaccine volume was at 2 ml / 100 ml, and the best incubation period was after 4 One week, applying all these optimal growth conditions for bacterial isolation, the decomposition rate of nylon bags used in the study was 43.2%.
