Biodegradation of polyethylene by indigenous fungi from waste recycling site, South West, Nigeria

Abstract

Table 1 shows counts from three different dilutions (10−5, 10−6 and 10−7). Fungal colonies decrease with increasing dilution. The number of fungal colonies is least in 10−7 and highest in 10−5 for all plates. Hence, the number of fungal colonies decreases with increasing concentration.
