Abstract
STUDY ON BIODEGRADATION OF NATURAL RUBBER BY FUNGAL CONSORTIUM AND ENZYMES RESPONSIBLE FOR BIODEGRADATION
Nayanashree G., Sowmya H. V., Thippeswamy B.*
ABSTRACT
Natural rubber is a biopolymer which accumulates in environment after the usage of rubber product. Subjecting the waste rubber product to biodegradation is one of the solutions to this problem which is carried out by various microorganisms and enzymes secreted by microorganisms.
As natural rubber is a complex biopolymer due to the cross linkage present in natural rubber is not so easy to degrade rubber, if a single microorganism is used for degradation and may take a very long time for degradation. So instead of single microorganism if combination of microorganism or microbial consortium is used for degradation it will give better result.
