Cell lysate from recombinant metallothionein-producing E. coli will be immobilised in a cell-free bioremediation cellulose hydrogel. This will effectively sequester cadmium, lead, arsenic and mercury.</p> <h3 id="4.3" class="anchor">PET Plastic Biodegradation</h3> <p>We draw inspiration from the PETase activity first identified in Ideonella sakaiensis (14), where PET can be broken down and converted to monohydroxyethyl terephthalate (MHET) which can then be metabolised into terephthalic acid (TPA) and ethylene glycol (EG). Mutated varieties of the PETase enzyme were synthesised and then extracted from E. coli cell lysate. The PETase varieties were then immobilised on silica beads. These silica beads when placed in water can then successfully break down PET plastic in water.</p> - <p>For more information on the design of each tool please visit the design page. </p> + <p>For more information on the design of each tool please visit the <a href="{{ url_for('pages', page='Design') }}">design page</a>. </p> <h1 style="text-align: center;" id="References" class="anchor">
