Biocoatings with Enhanced Bacterial Viability via Coagulant Dipping and Wet Sintering by Immersion
in a wet-sintered biocoating was demonstrated through the production of ethanol as a biofuel. These results hold promise for the future exploitation of biocoatings using a broad range of bacterial, especially desiccation-intolerant species.
