Biodegradation of polyhydroxyalkanoates [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1992 Degradation of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) and copolymers with 3-hydroxyvaleric acid was investigated in natural environments, and the microorganisms involved were isolated and identified. The influence of abiotic and biotic factors on the degradation is discussed.
