Supercritical antisolvent precipitation of PHBV microparticles [PDF]
International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 2007 The micronization of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) from organic solutions using supercritical antisolvent (SAS) technique has been successfully achieved. SAS experiments were carried out at different operational conditions and microspheres with mean diameters ranging from 3 to 9 microm were obtained. The effect of CO(2) and liquid

Exploring Lemon Industry By-Products for Polyhydroxyalkanoate Production: Comparative Performances of <i>Haloferax mediterranei</i> PHBV vs. Commercial PHBV. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel)This study investigates the valorisation of lemon industry by-products as carbon sources to produce poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) using the halophilic archaeon Haloferax mediterranei. The resulting polymer (HFX PHBV) was supplemented with nucleating agents (orotic acid, boron nitride, and theobromine) and compared with a ...

Express Polymer Letters, 2019 The morphology, crystallization behavior and mechanical properties of PLA, PHBV and their blends and nanocomposites with TiO2 as filler were investigated. An uncommon morphological change was observed with increasing PLA content in the blends, and this complicated the isothermal crystallization kinetics analyses of the different samples.

Cartilage tissue engineering using PHBV and PHBV/Bioglass scaffolds
Molecular Medicine Reports, 2014 Scaffolds have an important role in cartilage tissue engineering. Poly(hydroxybutyrate‑co‑hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) has been demonstrated to have potential as a scaffold for the three dimensional construction of engineered cartilage tissue. However, the poor hydrophilicity and mechanical strength associated with PHBV affects its clinical applications as ...
