Inefficient waste management and associated environmental pollution are exhausting
societies' precious renewable resources. Moreover, their effects on human health adversely …

Plastics are an integral part of most of the daily requirements. Indiscriminate usage and
disposal have led to the accumulation of massive quantities of waste. Their non …

The mechanisms through which microbes communicate using signal molecules has inspired
a great deal of research. Microbes use this exchange of information, known as quorum …

Bacterial polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are polyesters accumulated as carbon and energy
storage materials under limited growth conditions in the presence of excess carbon sources …

Species of Bacillus are spore-forming bacteria that are resistant to aggressive physical and
chemical conditions, with various species showing unusual physiological features enabling …

Lignin represents an untapped resource in lignocellulosic biomass, primarily due to its
recalcitrance to depolymerization and its intrinsic heterogeneity. In Nature, microorganisms …

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are intracellular aliphatic polyesters synthesized as energy
reserves, in the form of water-insoluble, nano-sized discrete and optically dense granules in …

The shellfish aquaculture industry has dramatically developed during the last two decades.
However, this development has, in some cases, resulted in environmental degradation …

Wastewater is not a liability, instead considered as a resource for microbial fermentation and
value-added products. Most of the wastewater contains various nutrients like nitrates and …

The microbially derived polyhydroxyalkanoates biopolymers could impact the global climate
scenario by replacing the conventional non-degradable, petrochemical-based polymer. The …
