Resumen

Los plásticos son productos muy utilizados porque tienen propiedades deseables para varios sectores industriales, como durabilidad, plasticidad y transparencia. Toneladas de este material se han ido acumulando en diferentes entornos de todo el mundo, lo que lo convierte en un problema medioambiental. Una alternativa para la eliminación de este material es la búsqueda de microorganismos adaptados al frío, que desarrollen vías catalíticas diferenciadas para adaptarse a las bajas temperaturas, pudiendo sintetizar enzimas capaces de metabolizar estos materiales. Debido a la ausencia o baja actividad de estas enzimas, esta estrategia sigue siendo un desafío sin una solución eficaz. El propósito de esta revisión fue evaluar la investigación sobre la biodegradación de plásticos por microorganismos de ambientes marinos fríos, en los últimos 10 años, utilizando los siguientes descriptores: “Biodegradación de plásticos Y océanos fríos”, “Biodegradación de plásticos Y (psicrófilos o psicrófilos)”, “PETasas Y (bacterias u hongos)” y “Biodegradación de plásticos y extremófilos”. Se realizó un relevamiento de publicaciones en las bases científicas Pubmed, Scopus y en la herramienta de búsqueda Google Scholar. Se encontraron 11.481 trabajos, de los cuales 97.9%, 1.84% y 0.26% se recuperaron de Google Scholar, Scopus y Pubmed, respectivamente. Las especies pertenecientes a los géneros Streptomyces, Corynebacterium, Arthrobacter, Micrococcus, Pseudomonas y Rhodococcus fueron las más mencionadas como degradantes potenciales de plásticos en ambientes marinos fríos. Los resultados de este trabajo muestran que aún son escasos los estudios sobre la degradación de plásticos por microorganismos en un ambiente frío, lo que abre perspectivas para nuevos estudios a realizar sobre este tema.
