Dilemma in Carotenoids Versus Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) Synthesis Using Haloarchaea as Cell Factories

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Production of PHAs by haloarchaea: the production of carotenoids and PHAs is concomitant, and consequently, various metabolic pathways compete for the carbon source. This results in a loss of PHA production efficiency. Efficient control of carbon source utilization (favoring certain metabolic pathways at the expense of others) is the key to the ...

Gamma Irradiation‐Based Free Radical Grafting of N‐Hydroxyethyl Acrylamide onto Poly[(R)‐3‐hydroxybutyrate]

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates successful gamma‐radiation‐induced grafting of N‐hydroxyethyl acrylamide onto poly[(R)‐3‐hydroxybutyrate], producing substantial changes in material properties. Grafting generated a biphasic, less crystalline structure with enhanced thermal stability, elongation (65%), toughness (378% increase), and exceptional water uptake (610 ...

Rheological Assessment of Polymer Melts and Networks: From Degradation to Recyclability

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Rheology provides a powerful analytic tool for tracking polymer degradation and structural evolution across manufacturing, service, and recycling. Linear and nonlinear rheological techniques reveal changes in molecular architecture, network stability, and processing history.
