Two-step conversion of polyethylene into recombinant proteins using a microbial platform

Abstract Background The increasing prevalence of plastic waste combined with the inefficiencies of mechanical recycling has inspired interest in processes that can convert these waste streams into value-added biomaterials. To date, the microbial conversion of plastic substrates into biomaterials has...
