| Research Abstract |
In this study, stable isotope probing of PHB film with 13C in order to explore the PHB degraders from different soil samples. The DNA Extracted from 13C labeled PHB film was subjected to ultracentrifugation. The resultant DNA was found labeled with 13C. It indicates that most of the microbes present on the surface of film might be PHB degraders. This 13C DNA was analyzed through 16S rRNA gene based T-RFLP and clonal analysis to identify different microbial communities. The results indicated the presence of different microbial communities on the surface of PHB films.
