Abstract
Most micro-organisms are used as a source of bioplastic manufacture and also used for degradation of plastics. Although manufacture of bioplastics is considered costly than synthetic plastic, it has many advantages over them. A large number of micro-organisms are being used for degradation of plastics as well as manufacture of bioplastics. Some biopolymers have also gained public acceptance and are now being manufactured. For degradation of plastics micro-organisms should be studied extensively so that solid waste can be degraded. Thus, microbes play important role in degradation as well as manufacture of plastics.
