NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Metabolix, Inc. announced that Metabolix has successfully used Metabolix's multi-gene expression technology in combination with Metabolix's expertise in plant engineering to successfully generate a large amount of biodegradable plastic in the leaf tissue of switchgrass in a recently completed greenhouse experiment. Polyhydroxyalkanoic acid (PHA). This achievement, as the first successful expression of a functional multiple genetic approach in switchgrass, shows the company’s groundbreaking bioengineering technology capabilities and uses this capability as a powerful tool to maximize the excavation of plants for the production of bioplastics and biofuels. potential.
Dr. Oliver Peoples, Chief Scientific Officer, pointed out: “Metabolix has been studying for seven years to produce switchgrass technology for PHA polymer production. This result confirms the possibility of producing PHA polymer economically in switchgrass, and for the first time proved Switchgrass as a value-added property for bioenergy crops."
Switchgrass is a plant that grows abundantly in the grasslands of the United States. It has been identified by the Department of Energy and the Ministry of Agriculture as an important raw material to produce the next generation of biofuels and biological products.
