Bacillus megaterium LVN01

DEP LVN01
◑ Environmental
Sequenced
Public genome assembly available

Bacillus megaterium LVN01 is a strain studied specifically for its ability to produce polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) — biodegradable bioplastics — from industrial byproducts such as glycerol and biogas digestate. Multiple in vitro studies have characterized its PHA yield under fed-batch and co-substrate conditions. B. megaterium as a species has a history in industrial biotechnology and vitamin B12 production, but LVN01's research profile is entirely within sustainable materials science. No probiotic or human health evidence was identified; this strain is an industrial organism outside the scope of gut health applications.
