Biodegradable block poly(ester-urethane)s based on poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) copolymers

Biomaterials, 2011
A series of block poly(ester-urethane)s (abbreviated as PU3/4HB) based on biodegradable poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) (P3/4HB) segments were synthesized by a facile way of melting polymerization using 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) as the coupling agent and stannous octanoate (Sn(Oct)(2)) as catalyst, with different 4HB contents ...

Osteogenic Potential of Electrospun Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate)/ Poly(ethylene glycol) Nanofiber Membranes

Journal of Biomedical Nanotechnology, 2019
Nanofibers as niche-biomimetic scaffolds exhibit potential in bone tissue engineering (BTE). Here, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) co-polymer (P34HB)/poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) nanofiber membranes with a high hydrophilicity and mechanical properties were fabricated by introducing PEG to P34HB via electrospinning. The P34HB/PEG nanofibrous

Alternative block polyurethanes based on poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) and poly(ethylene glycol)

Biomaterials, 2009
A series of amphiphilic alternative block polyurethane copolymers based on poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) (P3/4HB) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) were synthesized by a coupling reaction between P3/4HB-diol and PEG-diisocyanate, with different 3HB, 4HB, PEG compositions and segment lengths. Stannous octanoate was used as catalyst.

Microbial synthesis and properties of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) in Comamonas acidovorans

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 1994
Comamonas acidovorans DS-17 was isolated from activated sludge and found to produce copolymers of 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) and 4-hydroxybutyrate (4HB) at 30 degrees C under growth-limited conditions. When 1,4-butanediol or 4-hydroxybutyric acid was used as the sole carbon source, a P(4HB) homopolymer was produced.
