Novel polylactic acid obtained by chemical and biochemical hydrolysis of kenaf fibre

In this project, the aim is to produce polylactic acid from kenaf fibre biomass through fermentation. Kenaf fibre is found to be naturally resistant to breakdown due to its structural sugars since it is a lignocellulosic material. Hence, it is difficult for microorganisms to use it directly as ferme...
