Environmental risk, toxicity, and biodegradation of polyethylene: a review
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2022Polyethylene is the second-most-commonly-used commercial polymer. It is used in various industries, including agricultural mulches, composite materials, and packaging. Since polyethylene is not biodegradable, it can persist for a long time in water and soil, strangling otherwise fruitful land.

Classification, Source, and Effect of Environmental Pollutants and Their Biodegradation
Journal of Environmental Pathology, Toxicology and Oncology, 2017Any foreign chemical substance that is unusually present within an organism or is unexpectedly found in the environment at a higher concentration than the permissible limits can be termed a xenobiotic or a pollutant. Such substances include carcinogens, drugs, food additives, hydrocarbons, dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls, pesticides or even some ...

Biodegradation of persistent environmental pollutants by Arthrobacter sp.
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2019Persistent environmental pollutants are a growing problem around the world. The effective control of the pollutants is of great significance for human health. Some microbes, especially Arthrobacter, can degrade pollutants into nontoxic substances in various ways.

Environmental biodegradation of polyethylene [PDF]
Polymer Degradation and Stability, 2003 The degradation of a commercial environmentally degradable polyethylene was investigated in two stages. Firstly by abiotic oxidation in an air oven to simulate the effect of the compost environment and secondly in the presence of selected microorganisms.

Environmental aspects of PAH biodegradation
Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 1995Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous pollutants, some of which are on the US Environmental Protection Agency priority pollutant list. Consequently, timely clean-up of contaminated sites is important. The lower-mol-wt PAHs are amenable to bioremediation; however, higher-mol-wt PAHs seem to be recalcitrant to microbial degradation.

Environmental microbiology: biodegradation
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1982A genuinely new dimension to microbiology concerns the fate of synthetic compounds dispersed throughout the biosphere, with xenobiotic compounds representing a major challenge to the metabolic versatility of microorganisms. While microbial bio-degradation of many of these compounds proceeds by the activity of single species of microorganisms, this ...
