Monitoring PHB production in Synechocystis sp. with hyperspectral images [PDF]
Water Science and Technology, 2022 Microalgae wastewater treatment systems have the potential for producing added-value products. More specifically, cyanobacteria are able to accumulate polyhydroxybutyrates (PHBs), which can be extracted and used for bioplastics production.

Isolation and Enhancement of PHB-producing Bacteria from Sewage using Watermelon Rinds
Journal of Pure and Applied MicrobiologyPlastics contribute significantly to global environmental pollution due to their non-biodegradable nature. Biopolymers like polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), synthesized by microorganisms, offer an eco-friendly alternative.

The protective role of PHB and its degradation products against stress situations in bacteria.
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2020 Many bacteria produce storage biopolymers that are mobilized under conditions of metabolic adaptation, for example, low nutrient availability and cellular stress.

PHB into PHB: Recycling of polyhydroxybutyrate by a tandem “thermolytic distillation-microbial fermentation” process [PDF]
Resources, Conservation and Recycling, 2022 Abstract The recycling of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) via depolymerization-polymerization is here proposed and assessed for the first time. Effective depolymerization of PHB to crotonic acid through a thermolytic distillation at mild conditions (170 °C and 150 mbar), and without the need of any catalyst, gives a crotonic acid-enriched condensate (94 ...

Cyanobacteria for PHB production [PDF]
, 2017 The study carried out during the present Ph.D. program aimed at investigating the PHB production process in autotrophic cultures of cyanobacteria. The work was carried out at the Dipartimento di Ingegneria Chimica, dei Materiali e della Produzione Industriale of the University of Naples ‘Federico II’ and at Molecular Microbial Physiology Group of the ...

The Screening of PHB Secretion Strain of PHB Synthesis [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2nd Annual International Conference on Advanced Material Engineering (AME 2016), 2016 PHB is similar with non degradable plastic which is widely used in most properties. It is supposed to be an excellent substitute of traditional petrochemical plastics because of its biodegradable character. However, the production cost of PHB is much higher than that of traditional plastic.

In vivo and Post-synthesis Strategies to Enhance the Properties of PHB-Based Materials: A Review
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 The transition toward “green” alternatives to petroleum-based plastics is driven by the need for “drop-in” replacement materials able to combine characteristics of existing plastics with biodegradability and renewability features.
