• Microbial and Enzymatic Degradation of Synthetic Plastics (2020, background): “Pure strains of the actinomycete, Rhodococcus ruber have been shown to degrade three forms of PS, pure standard PS flakes, PS powder, and ELISA 96-well microtiter plates produced from pure PS (Mor and Sivan, 2008; Santo et al., 2013).”
• Microbial enzymes for the recycling of recalcitrant petroleum‐based plastics: how far are we? (2017, background): “A thermostable laccase from Rhodococcus ruber C208 degraded UV-irradiated PE films both in culture supernatants and in cell-free extracts in the presence of copper (Santo et al., 2013).”
