Bio-based plastics and composites have seen increased industry adoption in recent years due to growing demand for materials with a low carbon footprint. The use of lignin as a feedstock for polymers has seen growing interest as the concept...

High-performance liquid chromatography.

Bioprocess technology

Clevett KJ.
PMID: 1366852
Bioprocess Technol. 1990;6:47-73.

Gas chromatography has developed over the past 25 years or so into one of the most extensively used on-line analytical techniques in industrial process control and optimization. Liquid chromatography, and its several individual techniques, is firmly established in the...

Isolation and screening of polyhydroxyalkanoates producing bacteria from pulp, paper, and cardboard industry wastes.

International journal of biomaterials

Bhuwal AK, Singh G, Aggarwal NK, Goyal V, Yadav A.
PMID: 24288534
Int J Biomater. 2013;2013:752821. doi: 10.1155/2013/752821. Epub 2013 Oct 29.

Background. Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are storage materials that accumulate by various bacteria as energy and carbon reserve materials. They are biodegradable, environmentally friendly, and also biocompatible bioplastics. Unlike petrochemical-based plastics that take several decades to fully degrade, PHAs can be...
