So it looks like researchers at the University of Edinburgh were able to convert plastic into the analgesic/antipyretic drug paracetamol, w/ like a really high conversion rate??? And i really want to see these results replicated, because holy damn that sounds wild *&* points at so many possibilities

Wow: Plastic → Tylenol? 🧪♻️💊
A biocompatible Lossen rearrangement—a reaction never seen in nature—occurring INSIDE E. coli
Bacteria engineered to convert PET plastic → Tylenol in <24h, with 92% yield + low emissions
Stunning blend of chemistry and synthetic biology
