Background: Annual Global production of plastic waste is in millions of tons, which are durable and take hundreds of years to degrade. Bioplastics are a class of plastics from vegetable oil, starch, cellulose, or bacterial derivatives which distinguishes them from other plastics. These plastics can replace all other plastic productions. Methods: 70 samples were collected from waste recycling locations, culture and strain purification was done on Nutrient agar and indigo blue dye was used to identify PHB producing strains. The microbes were further incubated on Minimal Davis media for two days at 37. The samples were placed on a slide and colored, isolates were selected based on color intensity and used for bioplastic production.
