Description
Bacteria were sampled from Statesboro wastewater treatment facilities to identify native lipolytic strains for degradation of wastewater lipids. Lipolytic strains were isolated then assessed via morphological, biochemical, and molecular methods to determine their enzymatic capabilities. Isolates with the highest levels of enzymatic activity were identified as Bacillus spp.
