Screening And Characterization Of Starch Produced From Marine Microalgae Klebsormidium Flaccidum Gn-2

Starch is the main component that belongs to two third of the human diet pyramid and another one third of starch is used in non-food applications such as biofuel and bioplastic. Products produced from starch are biodegradable and help in reducing the environment pollution. However, environmental...
