New enzymes with potential for PET surface modification

This work describes newly isolated organisms and their potential to modify the surface of polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Out of the different screening processes, four bacterial and five fungal strains were isolated. A PET model substrate was synthesized (bis (benzoyloxyethyl) terephthalate) and...
