Our study aims to find an effective, eco-friendly, and business-lucrative way to tackle crude oil spills in the ocean using proteins Alkane Monooxygenase (AlkB) and Alcohol Dehydrogenase (ADH) synthesized from E.coli. Background research based on improving a study that created a plasmid containing only one oil degrading protein.
