Results of biomedical investigations of PHB and PHB/PHV fibers

Biochemical Engineering Journal, 2003
Abstract The paper presents the results of biomedical investigations of sutures made of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) of two types (poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) and poly-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-poly-3-hydroxyvalerate (PHB/PHV)), synthesized by the bacteria Ralstonia eutropha B 5786 in the experiment on test animals in vivo, in comparison with silk and ...

Efficient bioconversion of sugarcane bagasse into polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) by Lysinibacillus sp. and its characterization.

Bioresource Technology, 2021
In this study, Lysinibacillus sp. RGS was evaluated to synthesize polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) from a broad range of pure carbon sources and residual sugars of chemically pretreated sugarcane bagasse (SCB) hydrolysates.

Critical overview of biomass feedstocks as sustainable substrates for the production of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB).

Bioresource Technology, 2020
Polyhydroxybutyrates (PHBs) are a class of biopolymers produced by different microbial species and are biodegradable and biocompatible in nature as opposed to petrochemically derived plastics.

Recent progress and challenges in cyanobacterial autotrophic production of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), a bioplastic

, 2021
Plastic plays a crucial role in the household, industrial, and healthcare sectors and has become an integral part of human civilization. The non-biodegradable nature of plastic leads to severe environmental hazards.

Improved CO2-derived polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) production by engineering fast-growing cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus UTEX 2973 for potential utilization of flue gas.

Bioresource Technology, 2021
Industrial application of cyanobacterial poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) production from CO2 is currently challenged by slow growth rate and low photoautotrophic PHB productivity of existing cyanobacteria species.

Crystallization and melting behaviour of PHB and PHB/HV copolymer

Polymer, 1992
Abstract The crystallization and melting behaviour of bacterially produced poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) homopolymer and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate/3-hydroxyvalerate) copolymer were investigated by means of optical microscopy, wide-angle X-ray scattering and calorimetric measurements.

Preparation and characterization of environmentally safe and highly biodegradable microbial polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) based graphene nanocomposites for potential food packaging applications.

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2020
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a natural polyester of microbial origin and is an excellent substitute for petroleum-based food packaging materials. However, moderate mechanical, thermal and barrier properties limit utilization of PHB for commercial food ...

Screening of the strictly xylose-utilizing Bacillus sp. SM01 for polyhydroxybutyrate and its co-culture with Cupriavidus necator NCIMB 11599 for enhanced production of PHB.

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2021
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a biodegradable plastic that can be used as an alternative to petrochemical-based plastics. PHB is produced by various microorganisms such as Ralstonia, Halomonas, and Bacillus species.

PHB recovery by hypochlorite digestion of non-PHB biomass

Biotechnology Techniques, 1989
Hypochlorite digestion of bacterial biomass from intracellular poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) has not been used on a large scale since it has been reported to severely degrade PHB. In this study, to minimize degradation, the initial biomass concentration, digestion time and pH of the hypochlorite solution were optimized.
