Biosynthesis And Characterization Of Poly(3-Hydroxybutyrate-Co-3- Hydroxyvalerate) From Cupriavidus Malaysiensis Usmaa1020 Using Glycerin Pitch As Main Carbon Source
Plastics are used in almost every part of modern life, from making aeroplanes, cars, and buildings to making clothes, shoes, packaging for food and drinks, and medical devices. As a result, plastic waste is gathered globally, worsening the effects on the ecosystem. Synthetic plastics/conventional pl...
