Potential use of microbial thermo-bioplastic polyhydroxyalkanoate as promising tissue engineering biomaterial in biomedicine
نویسندگان
چکیده
The potential of bio based plastics for replacement of petrochemical plastics is 90%, corresponding to 240 million tons per year.1 Bio-based materials such as polynucleotides, polyamides, polysaccharides, polyoxoesters, polythioesters, polyanhydrides, polyisoprenoids and polyphenols are potential candidates for substitution of synthetic plastics.2 Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), belonging the group of polyesters, have been received a great deal of attention because they possess biodegradable thermoplastic properties.3

متن کاملRelevant uses of surface proteins – display on self‐organized biological structures
Proteins are often found attached to surfaces of self-assembling biological units such as whole microbial cells or subcellular structures, e.g. intracellular inclusions. In the last two decades surface proteins were identified that could serve as anchors for the display of foreign protein functions. Extensive protein engineering based on structure-function data enabled efficient display of tech...
