Animal fat and glycerol bioconversion to polyhydroxyalkanoate by produced water bacteria
e-Polymers, 2020 Oil reservoirs contain large amounts of hydrocarbon rich produced water, trapped in underground channels. Focus of this study was isolation of PHA producers from produced water concomitant with optimization of production using animal fat and glycerol as ...

Studies On The Starch-Like Granules Co-Accumulated With Polyhydroxybutyrate In Spirulina Platensis [QR99.7.S416 Y48 2007 f rb]. [PDF]
, 2007 Spirulina platensis is capable of synthesizing small amount of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) under nitrogen starvation condition. Gas chromatography (GC) analysis revealed that about 10 % PHA of the cell dry weight (CDW) was accumulated under mixotrophic ...

Toward Engineering the Substrate Specificity of a PHA Synthase (PhaC) [PDF]
, 2021 <p>Manufacturing of high-grade plastics from petroleum-based feedstocks is a high-cost, unsustainable process resulting in expensive products. My overall goal was to engineer the pathway of bacterial bio-polyester formation, in order to produce high-grade bioplastics.

Screening of polyhydroxyalkanoate-producing bacteria and PhaC-encoding genes in two hypersaline microbial mats from Guerrero Negro, Baja California Sur, Mexico [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Hypersaline microbial mats develop through seasonal and diel fluctuations, as well as under several physicochemical variables. Hence, resident microorganisms commonly employ strategies such as the synthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) in order to ...

Antibiotic‐mediated immune modulation in periodontitis
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the supporting structures of the teeth. Although initiated by dysbiotic microbial communities, its progression is largely driven by the host's uncontrolled inflammatory response. While antibiotics have conventionally been employed in periodontitis therapy for their antimicrobial ...
