Ethanol treatment for sterilization, concentration, and stabilization of a biodegradable plastic-degrading enzyme from Pseudozyma antarctica culture supernatant.
Biodegradable plastics must be sufficiently stable to maintain functionality during use but need to be able to degrade rapidly after use. We previously reported that treatment with an enzyme named PaE, secreted by the basidiomycete yeast Pseudozyma antarctica can speed up this degradation. To facili...
