What are biopolymers?<\/h3>\n<p>Biopolymers are natural polymers produced by the cells of living organisms. They consist of monomeric units that are covalently bonded to form larger structures. These polymers are crucial for various biological processes and functions, and they can be found in all living organisms, including plants, animals, and microorganisms. There are several types of biopolymers, each with a unique structure and function. Examples: Cellulose, Starch, etc.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Source: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.business-standard.com\/india-news\/cabinet-nod-to-bioe3-policy-for-innovation-driven-support-to-r-d-124082400774_1.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><u>Govt gives nod to BioE3 policy, Vigyan Dhara scheme to foster R&amp;D<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BioE3 (Biotechnology for Economy, Environment and Employment) Policy, to be steered by the Department of Biotechnology, is for fostering high-performance biomanufacturing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":26048,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-26047","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-upsc-prelims-current-affairs","8":"no-featured-image-padding"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vajiramandravi.com\/current-affairs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26047","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vajiramandravi.com\/current-affairs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vajiramandravi.com\/current-affairs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vajiramandravi.com\/current-affairs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vajiramandravi.com\/current-affairs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26047"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/vajiramandravi.com\/current-affairs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26047\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vajiramandravi.com\/current-affairs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26048"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vajiramandravi.com\/current-affairs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26047"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vajiramandravi.com\/current-affairs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26047"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vajiramandravi.com\/current-affairs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26047"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
