Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) toward cost competitiveness and functionality
Advanced Industrial and Engineering Polymer Research, 2020 Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) have been produced by several bacteria as bioplastics in industrial scales. PHA commercialization has been challenging due to its complexity and the associated high cost together with instabilities on molecular weights (Mw ...

Extremophilic and extremotolerant fungi
Current Biology, 2023 There are few places on Earth that are truly aseptic. Even environments that we may consider 'extreme', such as glaciers, deserts, or hypersaline bodies of water (Figure 1), can harbour life. The organisms that thrive in such environments - mostly microbes - are often referred to as 'extremophiles'.
