Filament Induction in Escherichia coli by Ricinoleic Acid.
SummarySodium ricinoleate interferes with cell division in E. coli causing the organisms to develop as filaments. The effect appears to be specific and dependent upon the 9:10 unsaturation and the 12-hydroxy group as well as the cis-configuration around the double bond, present in this fatty acid.

In this study, two series of novel PBAT‐mimicking copolyesters are introduced by exploiting lignin‐based building blocks. This class of copolyesters exhibits good barrier properties and biodegradability, paving the way for terephthalate‐free, biodegradable, flexible copolyesters. Poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) is an important commercial
