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 ...

Optimising PHBV biopolymer production in haloarchaea via CRISPRi-mediated redirection of carbon flux
Communications Biology, 2021 The haloarchaeon Haloferax mediterranei is a potential strain for poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) production, yet the production yield and cost are the major obstacles hindering the use of this archaeal strain.
