• Microplastic in Surface Waters of Urban Rivers: Concentration, Sources, and Associated Bacterial Assemblages (2016, background): “Some strains of Pseudomonas produce enzymes such as serine hydrolases, esterases, and lipases, which assist in plastic biodegradation (Bhardwaj et al. 2013).”
• Microbial enzymes for the recycling of recalcitrant petroleum‐based plastics: how far are we? (2017, background): “Inducible extracellular enzymes play a crucial role in the further depolymerization process of the synthetic polymers (Lucas et al., 2008; Sivan, 2011; Bhardwaj et al., 2013).”
