Biodegradability of Oxidized Poly(vinyl alcohol) [PDF]
Poly(vinyl alcohol) dehydrogenase (PVADH) purified from Pseudomonas sp. 113P3 catalyzed an oxidation of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) in the presence of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) to give a beta-diketone structure on PVA. Although PVADH oxidized not only enzymatically oxidized PVA but also chemically oxidized PVA, PVA-degrading microorganisms ...

Poly(vinyl alcohol)/poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) hydrogels for the cleaning of art [PDF]
The cleaning of modern and contemporary paintings is a delicate and challenging operation. Many contemporary paintings exhibit rough, clotted and pitted surfaces, where the removal of soil is difficult. Gels are among the most efficient tools to achieve controlled and efficient cleaning of works of art.
