This inner 5 y/o notices that the EPA was looking at this strain in 1997, as it was then being used in certain fermentation processes (enzymes for laundry soaps, proteases, natto fermentation).
Concluded that it was ‘not harmful’ for the factory workers in general, but could present problems for the immunocompromised and had been found associated with infection/inflammation in both humans and animals…
I remember something like from way back then too. Thank you for the way back machine, as all the scant details I may have had have become a degraded plastic form, which once it encountered the graphene oxide triggered by 5 and 6 g formed a walking ai that insisted that jokes about the plastic who met the bacterium in the bar were actually serious contenders looking for a boxing match instead of the the butt end of a bad joke.
an ubiquitous plastic and a bacterium walk into a bar. the plastic looked around and felt comfortable enough to say to the bar tender. 'i dont feel comfortable sitting in a bar that would serve types like it,' and pointed to the common bacterium.
before the bar tender could respond the plastic's finger fell off. the bacterium said, 'did not see that coming, did you? we were here first.' and then the other plastics began dropping pieces of themselves.
the bacterium turned to the bar tender and saw that its 3d graphene face was also falling off. the bacterium said to the dismantling ai transhumanist robot-thing 'nothing to see here, folks. move along.'
“What’s remarkable is that our material breaks down even without the presence of additional microbes,” - Ha! What’s remarkable is their confidence in their ability to circumvent some laws of physics and thermodynamics without consequences! ;-)
That's another remarkable thing. :) It is very hard to say what exactly they tested and how, I am just curious how they expect the bacteria to start digesting the thing at the precise moment when the thing is declared as no longer needed. If would actually make sense to make compost with plastic-digesting bacteria (assuming the fast breakdown won't create a lot of toxins all at once, etc.) But with this, it's so random I don't know what they are thinking exactly. Remote control bacteria to read their minds on when they want the bacteria to start doing the work? It's a mystery to me how they envision it in practice
Yes, this stuff will begin to biodegrade as soon as it is manufactured, if I am reading it right. I don't think I want this stuff insulating any wiring. Or automotive components. Or aircraft. Or lots of other stuff. Shoes gonna fall apart anyway. What this sounds like is the latest too good to be true, too cheap to meter flimflam. But it will be launched and put into wide use before the dimwits in charge realize it was a terrible idea.
Bill Gates of Hell is investigating this plastic right now. He is looking for new biodegradable packaging for lab grown beef and ground cricket flour. All kidding aside-- maybe not-- what are the by-products of the plastic as it breaks down? New and improved seldom is.
wait til the company that makes Trojans gets ahold of this stuff
PS. "Trojan has joined forces with COVID dissidents in fighting the WEF and its depopulation agenda." :)
was just thinking the same thing :)
LOL!!!

Exactly—nothing to see here! Move along…
Exactly!

hola, tessa.

Thank you for this, Guy! Life is competing with fiction!
Yes. There is the old saw, fact is stranger than fiction.

An accident waiting to happen, and it won’t take much.
Awesome Tessa. 🤓 What could possibly go wrong ? 🤪
Thank you Tessa
I think we already have solutions for plastic: 1.-Stop using it, and 2.- mycelium spores that will transform anything to soil.
Something else is at stake and they need public support and money of course for the something else.
Mycelium takes plastic to soil?
And wasn't there a microbe that turned petroleum products floating on ocean waters into something more natural? Memory a bit faded there too.
yes it was and still is, but no profit
You ask good questions. Your analyses are logical
It is delightful when you eviscerate nonsense
