Withlab member @spencemacdon sat down with @azom to talk about the discovery of the new biopolymer, acholetin.
AZoM speaks to Dr. Spence Macdonald from @ABOzymes about his discovery of a novel #biopolymer, acholetin, synthesized from a bacterial enzyme: azom.com/article.aspx?Articl… #acholetin #bacteria #enzymes

I discovered a new biopolymer! AND I got to name it!
See what I call it and read more about the discovery in ACS Central Science.
Thanks to all my co-authors at UBC, UC Berkeley and the JGI, you’re the best 😘

We went looking for new CAZymes, and we ended up finding a new biopolymer too!
We named it acholetin!
Read about our discovery in ACS Central Science @ACSCentSci.

I did the same with my Sciex API300 packing case many years ago...but for my son's tree house. He is now 33 and the tree house long gone!
