Biosynthesis of Fatty Alcohols in Engineered Microbial Cell Factories: Advances and Limitations
Concerns about climate change and environmental destruction have led to interest in technologies that can replace fossil fuels and petrochemicals with compounds derived from sustainable sources that have lower environmental impact. Fatty alcohols produced by chemical synthesis from ethylene or by ch...
