Answer #1

Thd sutures helps in wound closure after a surgery or traumatic injury and helps to  keep the wound intact till the natural healing occurs. Sutures are made of various materials. These materials can be classified as biodegradable and non biodegradable.
Biodegradable materials shows a greater tissue response as compared to non biodegradable material.
Biodegradable materials are degraded and ansorbed through actions of lymphocytes. Also bacterial adherence to biodegradable material is higher which results in greater inflammatory and local tissue responses.
Biodegradable materials are encapsulated by the fibroblasts and does not exhibit much tissue responses. The tissue response to non biodegradable material is shorter and less intense.

Due to overly reliance on non-biodegradable plastic, abundance of plastic waste has led to waste management issues. Malaysia, one of the top producers of palm oil, is investigating the feasibility to convert empty fruit bunch (EFB) (waste from palm oil production) to bioplastic. One of the potential bioplastic from EFB is poly(levulinic acid–pentaerythritol) (PLA-PE). PLA-PE has shown promises as an alternative to replace conventional plastic due to its mechanical strength and moldability. PLA-PE is produced by the reaction of levulinic...
