Improving lignocellulose thermal stability by chemical modification with boric acid for incorporating into polyamide

Materials & Design, 2020
The preparation of bio-composites based on engineering plastic is always restricted by the low thermal stability of lignocellulose. In this study, the thermal stability of lignocellulose was improved by boric acid modification.

Discovering PETases: An Interlink Between Engineering Enzymes and Microbiomes. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol
In this review‐type article, we discuss some recent trends in the identification of polyethylene terephthalate‐degrading enzymes (PETases) from nature. We highlight that the discovery of novel PETases can be improved by an interlink between reshaping microbiomes and engineering proteins.
