A poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL)-degrading bacterium designated as strain MRL-AN1 was isolated from soil. The identified Brevundimonas sp. through biochemical tests and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Scanning electron microscopy Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results confirmed the degradation of PCL by MRL-AN1. An extracellular depolymerase purified to homogeneity column chromatography molecular weight estimated be approximately 63.49 kDa sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel...
