Novel polyhydroxyalkanoate copolymers produced in Pseudomonas putida by metagenomic polyhydroxyalkanoate synthases [PDF]
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2016 Bacterially produced biodegradable polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) with versatile properties can be achieved using different PHA synthases (PhaCs). This work aims to expand the diversity of known PhaCs via functional metagenomics and demonstrates the use of these novel enzymes in PHA production.

Biodegradation Behavior of Polyhydroxyalkanoates on the Territory of Vietnam and Central Siberia [PDF]
Журнал Сибирского федерального университета: Серия Биология, 2012 For the first time, PHA biodegradation was studied in microecosystems situated in different regions and under different climate conditions. The study showed that the time necessary for the polymer weight to decrease to a half of its initial weight, could

Ecosystem‐Centered Robot Design: Toward Ecoresorbable Sustainability Robots (ESRs)
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Robots exploring natural ecosystems can support monitoring and conservation, but must adopt ecosystem‐centered design to avoid pollution, waste, and damage. This review proposes guidelines for co‐designing ecoresorbable sustainability robots (ESRs), uniting materials, robotics, and ecological contexts in a single framework.
