DEHP (di-ethyl hexyl phthalate) is widely used as a plasticizer and it adversely affects humans. In this study, one of the promising DEHP-degrading strain T28 had been selected among isolated pure bacterial strain from rubbish landfill soil near the hospital area, Patna. The bacterial strain T28 was capable of consuming DEHP as a sole source of carbon and energy. By analysing morphological, biophysical, biochemical characteristics, gram staining technique followed by the analysis of 16s rRNA phylogenetic studies, the strain was identified as Bacillus subtilis (Genbank Accession no. CPO230367). | Screening of Di-2-Ethyl hexyl phthalate DEHP degrading bacteria and its characterization by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry analysis
