Journal ArticleDOI
Progressing Plastics Circularity: A Review of Mechano-Biocatalytic Approaches for Waste Plastic (Re)valorization.
Efstratios Nikolaivits,Brana Pantelic,Muhammad Azeem,George Taxeidis,Ramesh Babu,Evangelos Topakas,Margaret Brennan Fournet,Jasmina Nikodinovic-Runic +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a suite of technological and engineering approaches, which can be implemented to operate in tandem with nature's prescription for regenerative material circularity, is presented as a route to plastics sustainability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of the production of docosahexaenoic fatty acid by the heterotrophic microalga Crypthecodinium cohnii utilizing a dark fermentation effluent
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of different fermentation conditions was examined, such as incubation temperature, nitrogen source and concentration, the addition of chemical modulators, as well as the feeding composition.
Journal ArticleDOI
A polyesterase from the Antarctic bacterium Moraxella sp. degrades highly crystalline synthetic polymers.
Efstratios Nikolaivits,George Taxeidis,Christina Gkountela,Stamatina Vouyiouka,Veselin Maslak,Jasmina Nikodinovic-Runic,Evangelos Topakas +6 more
TL;DR: In this article , a psychrophilic polyesterase (MoPE) from the antractic bacterium Moraxella sp. was heterologously expressed, characterized and its potential in polymer degradation was further investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of Abortiporus biennis lignocellulolytic toolbox, and the role of laccases in polystyrene degradation.
Anastasia Zerva,Romanos Siaperas,George Taxeidis,Maria Kyriakidi,Stamatina Vouyiouka,Georgios I. Zervakis,Evangelos Topakas +6 more
TL;DR: In this article , Abortiporus biennis, a white-rot fungus, was studied in regard to its lignocellulolytic potential, and two novel laccases were isolated from the culture supernatant with ion-exchange chromatography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Triggering and identifying the polyurethane and polyethylene-degrading machinery of filamentous fungi secretomes.
George Taxeidis,Efstratios Nikolaivits,Romanos Siaperas,Christina Gkountela,Stamatina Vouyiouka,Brana Pantelic,Jasmina Nikodinovic-Runic,Evangelos Topakas +7 more
TL;DR: In this article , the secretome of a Fusarium species reduced the sample mass and the average molecular weight of the polyethylene (LDPE) by 24.5 and 20.4% respectively.
