The detrimental impact of single-use plastics on the environment is daily news across the
globe. Single-use plastic packaging materials and other plastic waste originating from …

The accumulation of conventional petroleum-based polymers has increased exponentially
over the years. Therefore, algae-based biopolymer has gained interest among researchers …

PHA, a family of natural biopolymers aiming to replace non-degradable plastics for short-
term usages, has been developed to include various structures such as short-chain-length …

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) belong to group of biopolymers that have in recent times
received growing research interest as a result of being eco-friendly and close characteristics …

The rising plastic pollution deteriorates the environment significantly as these petroleum-
based plastics are not biodegradable, and their production requires natural fuels (energy …

The plastics market is dominated by fossil-based polymers, but their gradual replacement by
bioplastics (eg, polyhydroxyalkanoates) is occurring. However, recycling strategies need to …

This study aims to provide an overview of the main polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) used in
medical applications. In this review, it has been demonstrated that the properties of PHAs …

The current processes for producing polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are costly, owing to the
high cost of cultivation feedstocks, and the need to sterilise the growth medium, which is …

Traditional plastics have undoubted utility and convenience for everyday life; but when they
are derived from petroleum and are non-biodegradable, they contribute to two major crises …

Fossil fuels are energy recourses that fulfill most of the world's energy requirements.
However, their production and use cause severe health and environmental problems …
