Rubber gloves biodegradation by a consortium, mixed culture and pure culture isolated from soil samples
Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (3), 2018
Abstract An increasing production of natural rubber (NR) products has led to major challenges in waste management. In this study, the degradation of rubber latex gloves in a mineral salt medium (MSM) using a bacterial consortium, a mixed culture of the selected bacteria and a pure culture were studied. T...
