Transmission electron microscopy characterisation of Spirulina bioplastics
Journal of Microscopy, Volume 303, Issue 1, Page 101-119, July 2026.Abstract Plastic pollution is impacting global ecosystem health. Bioplastics made from unprocessed biomass, including whole or fragmented tissues, are one potential solution. They are biodegradable and exhibit competitive mechanical performance. Seaweed and microalgae have gained popularity over the last decade as bioplastic feedstocks due to their ...
