Controlled Feeding Facilitates the Development of a Robust Production Process for Terpolymeric Polyhydroxyalkanoates

Biotechnology Journal, Volume 21, Issue 6, June 2026.
Graphical Abstract and Lay Summary Cupriavidus necator NCIMB 11599 was cultivated with a fully automated pH–pO2‑dependent feeding strategy that enables controlled levulinic acid delivery and robust production of PHBVV terpolymer. The process was successfully transferred from 7.5 to 42‑L stirred‑tank reactors, maintaining PHA contents of ∼75% CDW and ...
