After feeding 40 mealworms with only plastic for 5 weeks, we measured the length and the weight of the 20 samples. The average weight is 0.177g per worm and the original length is about 30.4cm. Compared to the original length 20.2cm, it is noticeable that mealworms are possible to continue their lives with plastics as their only source of nutrient.<br/><br/> | After feeding 40 mealworms with only plastic for 5 weeks, we measured the length and the weight of the 20 samples.

<h3>After this project of adding the PET degradation ability of mealworms, we have planned several future projects that could continue our previous one. We can synthesize the mealworm’s gut bacteria itself with PETase DNA. Then, we should modify these bacteria to allow it to survive not only in the mealworm’s gut, but also in natural environments.</h3> | <h3>After this project of adding the PET degradation ability of mealworms, we have planned several future projects that could continue our previous one.
