“The plastic problem is huge and all of us are beginning to be aware of it,” he said. “This is not going to be the total solution, but I think it's going to be part of the solution.”

“塑料的问题很严峻，而且我们也都开始引起重视，”他说“这不是最完善的解决方式，不过我想这项研究能解决一部分的问题。”

Professor John McGeehan, a biologist at the University of Plymouth, who has done research into plastic-degrading enzymes, warned MsVague's research was in its early stages and more testing was needed.

普利茅斯的生物学家McGeehan，之前做过降解塑料酶的研究，告诫Vague女士，其研究还处在初级阶段，还有许多的测试要做。

“These are naturally occurring bacteria that are out there in the environment and we're not looking to genetically engineer them, we're just trying to isolate bacteria and then treat the plastic in a way the bacteria can naturally digest it.”

“在自然环境中被来就存在着可以降解塑料的细菌，我们不必人为的改变它们，我们只要把细菌隔离，然后提供塑料，它们就可以自动把塑料降解。”
