Effect of Different Incubation Times on the Effectiveness of Oyster Mushrooms Towards the Growth of Some Fungal Isolates
Abstract: The study was conducted by preparing the filtrate of the oyster mushroom Pleurotus ostreatus, where the effectiveness of the fungal filtrate prepared from growing the fungus in the liquid Potato Dextrose Broth (PDB) medium was selected for two different periods (14, 28 days) in inhibiting some types of fungi (Aspergillus Spp : Aspergillus niger ،Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus terreus) and some types of fungi (Candida Spp: Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Candida …

Biodegradation of Plastic Waste Using Various Fungal Isolates from Plastic-Polluted Sites in Meerut: Analysis of Polymers and Composites
Abstract: By isolating microorganisms from a dumpsite containing low-density polyethylene (LDPE), the potential for microbial decomposition of plastic waste was studied. Four different strains of Aspergillus niger (fungus) were identified and used to biodegrade plastic waste. The isolated fungal strains included Aspergillus niger, Alternaria, A. fumigatus, A. flavus, and A. luchuensis. Predominant fungal strains, Aspergillus niger and Alternaria, were selected for polyethylene degradation under laboratory conditions. In a controlled shaker culture, …
