Enzymes and Microorganisms for the Production of 1,3-Butadiene and Other Dienes
1,3-butadiene is a highly useful chemical building block that is instrumental in the production of many fine and commodity chemicals. It is also an intermediate chemical in the production of synthetic rubbers. These rubbers have a wide range of applications across many fields, from tire production to medical equipment. The conventional method of 1,3-butadiene...
