Structural basis of terephthalate recognition by solute binding protein TphC
Nature Communications, 2021 The presence of the gene encoding the solute binding protein TphC has been shown to permit the uptake of terephthalate (TPA), which is the breakdown product of Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic.

Electrospinning polyethylene terephthalate glycol
International Journal of Bioprinting, 2023 Polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG) is a difficult-to-spin material, and no previous papers have reported the correct conditions to create PETG meshes. To address this issue, a preliminary study on the solubility and electrospinnability of PETG using a range of solvent system was conducted and a Teas graph was established to select the ideal ...
