OUC-Haide # NCDriven-deHCHO: Remove formaldehyde from indoor environment # In recent years, indoor formaldehyde pollution, a known human carcinogen, has increased in newly renovated homes, with existing removal methods facing issues like secondary pollution and inconsistent effectiveness. To address the pressing issue of formaldehyde pollution, our team has developed an innovative biological device. We’ve integrated genetically modified bacteria into this device to remove formaldehyde from the environment oxidatively. These bacteria express non-natural cofactor (NCD)-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase and formate dehydrogenase. ...
