Enzyme and Microbial Technology, 2000 An efficient method for the preparation of optically active alkyl (R)-(-)-3-hydroxybutyrates by chemical depolymerization of biopolymer, poly-(R)-(-)-(3-hydroxybutyrate), was established. This method consists of simple recovery of poly-(R)-(-)-(3-hydroxybutyrate) from bacterial cells followed by acidic alcoholysis. When poly-(R)-(-)-(3-hydroxybutyrate)

Synthesis of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) by Immobilized Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) Synthase [PDF]
Polymer Journal, 2003 At present, biodegradable and biocompatible polymers are being widely sought by materials industries, and poly(3-hydroxyalkanoate) (PHA) appears to be one of the most promising material sources of such polymers. Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is a typical PHA and has been investigated in detail.

Microbial degradation of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) in soils [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1993 The microbial degradation of tensile test pieces made of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] or a copolymer of 90% 3-hydroxybutyric acid and 10% 3-hydroxyvaleric acid was studied in soils incubated at a constant temperature of 15, 28, or 40 degrees C for up to 200 days.

Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) Nanocomposites with Cellulose Nanocrystals
Polymers, 2022 Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is one of the most promising substitutes for the petroleum-based polymers used in the packaging and biomedical fields due to its biodegradability, biocompatibility, good stiffness, and strength, along with its good gas-barrier properties. One route to overcome some of the PHB’s weaknesses, such as its slow crystallization,
