Assay of 3-hydroxybutyrate in the picomolar range
Biochemical Medicine and Metabolic Biology, 1991A radioisotopic procedure for the assay of 3-hydroxybutyrate is presented. It is based on the measurement of NADH, generated in the 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase reaction, through the conversion of 2-[U-14C]ketoglutarate to 14C-labeled L-glutamate in the presence of beef liver glutamate dehydrogenase.

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) represent a group of biopolymers that are synthesized by many bacteria as storage compounds and deposited as insoluble cytoplasmic inclusions. Because they have many putative technical and medical applications, PHAs may play an important role in human life in the future.

The Oxidation of 3‐Hydroxybutyrate in Developing Rat Jejunum
Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, 1991SummaryKetone bodies and glutamine are the primary oxidative substrates in the intestine of fasting adult rats. Because suckling rats consume the majority of their calories in the form of lipid and as a result have elevated blood ketone concentrations similar to fasting adult rats, we examined the role of ketone oxidation as a source of energy in the ...

Nonisothermal crystallization and melting behavior of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and maleated PHB were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry using various cooling rates. The results show that the crystallization behavior of maleated PHB from the melt greatly depends on cooling rates and its degree of grafting.

Photodegradation of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)
Polymer Degradation and Stability, 2010Abstract The effect of ultraviolet radiation on the properties of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) was studied. The PHB investigated is produced from microbial fermentation using saccharose from sugarcane as the carbon source to the bacteria. The material was exposed to artificial UV-A radiation for 3, 6, 9 and 12 weeks.

Two D-(-)-3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) dehydrogenases, BDH1 and BDH2, were isolated and purified from a poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB)-degradable bacterium, Ralstonia pickettii T1. BDH1 activity increased in R. pickettii T1 cells grown on several organic acids as a carbon source but not on 3HB, whereas BDH2 activity markedly increased in the same cells grown

A flow-injection system with an immobilized enzyme reactor is proposed for the determination of 3-hydroxybutyrate. 3-Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase is immobilized on aminated poly(vinyl alcohol) beads and packed into a stainless-steel column (4 cm x 4 mm I.D.). Serum is diluted and filtered.

Biodegradable poly‐3‐hydroxybutyrate as a fertiliser carrier
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2016AbstractBACKGROUNDIncreasing use of mineral fertilisers can lead to accumulation of fertilisers in soil, water and foodstuffs. One of the approaches to preventing these problems is to develop controlled release forms of fertilisers.RESULTSExperimental formulations of the nitrogen fertiliser urea loaded in a degradable matrix of the natural polymer poly‐

Thermochimica Acta, 2006
Abstract With the objective of developing new biodegradable materials, the miscibility and the crystallinity of blends of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate), P(3HB), and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate), P(3HB-co-3HV), have been studied. P(3HB) (300 kg mol−1)/P(3HB-co-3HV)–10% 3HV (340 kg mol−1) blends were prepared by casting in a wide range of ...

Poly-3-hydroxybutyrate production byAzotobacter chroococcum
Folia Microbiologica, 2001Thirty-seven soil isolates and mutants of Azotobacter chroococcum tested for poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) production using Sudan black B staining method were found to be positive. One mutant showed a higher number of PHB-producing cells and maximum number of granules per cell. Using 2% glucose and 15 mmol/L ammonium acetate, PHB production was found to
