What is "biodegraded"

Usage examples of "biodegraded".

Fortunately, Starfleet's flash-pack field rations heated automatically when opened and the containers completely biodegraded two hours after being activated.

Another syringe in the pack had a very small amount of a dye that biodegraded quickly but, used skillfully, created very sincere needle tracks.

It was an irony of contemporary life that the wrappers of hamburger and tostada, noodle and pizza, biodegraded faster than the scraps of food that adhered to them, for which the real rodents, as opposed to the automatonic ones, were ever grateful.

Eventually it biodegraded, and no trace of it remained in the sea or in the air.
