Dataset on the impact of UV, nitric acid and surfactant treatments on low-density polyethylene biodegradation

Present investigation evaluates the LDPE (low-density polyethylene) biodegradation efficiency of polymer degrading bacteria along with UV, nitric acid and surfactant treatments. In current scenario LDPE contamination reported as dominant pollutant in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem due to its expu...
