Fungal Enzymes as Catalytic Tools for Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) Degradation [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2021 The ubiquitous persistence of plastic waste in diverse forms and different environmental matrices is one of the main challenges that modern societies are facing at present. The exponential utilization and recalcitrance of synthetic plastics, including polyethylene terephthalate (PET), results in their extensive accumulation, which is a significant ...
