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.

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 ...

, 2011 Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is produced by micro-organisms as a form of energy storage. As such the polyester is sustainable, biocompatible and truly biodegradable. In addition, PHB is water insoluble and relatively resistant to hydrolytic degradation.

No conclusive evidence that difficult general knowledge questions cause a “Google Stroop effect”. A replication study [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Access to the digital “all-knowing cloud” has become an integral part of our daily lives. It has been suggested that the increasing offloading of information and information processing services to the cloud will alter human cognition and metacognition in

The impact of affective states and traits on perceptual stability during binocular rivalry
Scientific Reports, 2023 Affective states and traits have been associated with different measures of perceptual stability during binocular rivalry. Diverging approaches to measuring perceptual stability as well as to examination of the role of affective variables have ...

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.

Monitoring PHB production in Synechocystis sp. with hyperspectral images
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.
