Application
- Biopolymer synthesis for agricultural use: A study engineered Pseudomonas chlororaphis to synthesize biopolymers incorporating 3-hydroxybutyrate and medium-chain-length 3-hydroxyalkanoates from dodecanoic acid. This process highlights its role in sustainable bioplastic production, which could benefit agricultural practices by developing biodegradable mulch films (Deng et al., 2024).
