Bacillus velezensis MT9

DEP MT9
◑ Environmental
Sequenced
Public genome assembly available

Bacillus velezensis MT9 is a marine bacterium that has been studied for its interaction with synthetic polymers. In vitro research has examined this strain's capacity to mineralize carbon-labeled polyethylene and degrade low-density polyethylene films, and an animal study has examined its effects on the gut microbiota of Nile tilapia. B. velezensis MT9 is not a recognized human probiotic strain; the available evidence concerns environmental plastic degradation and aquaculture research rather than human health. These are research topics, not findings; the papers do not establish that this strain treats or prevents any condition.
