Whey, which is considered as waste within the scope of the project and is one of the big problems throughout Muş; It will be used to grow lactic acid bacteria, and biosafe and antimicrobial bioplastic will be produced from the grown bacteria. Thus, it is aimed to contribute to the industry by reducing waste and creating an alternative to petroleum-derived plastics.

This important project is expected to be an important milestone in the field of bioplastic production. The results of the research may shed light on the development of environmentally friendly and effective antimicrobial bioplastics.
