Abstract

In the quest for sustainable alternatives to traditional synthetic polymers, microbial biopolymers have emerged as promising candidates. These biopolymers, produced by various microorganisms, offer a range of advantages over their synthetic counterparts, including biodegradability, renewability, and often, superior mechanical properties. As the world grapples with the environmental consequences of plastic pollution, the exploration and utilization of microbial biopolymers represent a significant step towards a more sustainable future.
