Linking microbial cultivation with NGS to degrade pharmaceutical waste products
26. January 2023
Microbial communities have been identified as promising key-players for the biodegradation of pharmaceutical micropollutants such as Ibuprofen or Acetaminophen, which are continuously released into various environmental compartments, where they can persist. By using a combinatorial approach of bioinformatics (e.g. amplicon-seq, metagenomics), microbial cultivation and analytics, we are able to identify promising bacterial communities and pure cultures in order to tackle this significant pollution problem.
