Peptides as biosorbents – Promising tools for resource recovery

Research in Microbiology, 2018
Despite many innovations, meeting both economic and ecological requirements remains challenging for conventional resource recovery technology. The development of highly selective peptides puts a new competitor on the market. We present an approach to identify peptides for resource recovery using Phage Surface Display.
