Preparation and characterization of immobilized mannanase on polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA). [PDF]

Bioresour Bioprocess
Abstract Galactomannan oligosaccharides (GMOS), composed of 2–10 mannose units linked with β-1, 4 glycosidic bond as the main chain and galactose linked with α-1, 6 glycosidic bond as the side chain, are crucial for probiotic food synthesis due to their ability to promote the growth and activity of beneficial intestinal microbiota, enhance ...

Biodegradability of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) biopolyesters in nature: a review. [PDF]

Biodegradation
Abstract In the search for sustainable alternatives and substitutes to overcome plastic pollution, polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) stand out as the gold standard. The very fact that PHA are microbially produced from renewable carbon sources, biodegraded by microbial action, and possess the beneficial properties of over 50% of the world’s plastics

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs): Biopolymers for Biofuel and Biorefineries [PDF]

Polymers, 2021
Fossil fuels are energy recourses that fulfill most of the world’s energy requirements. However, their production and use cause severe health and environmental problems including global warming and pollution. Consequently, plant and animal-based fuels (also termed as biofuels), such as biogas, biodiesel, and many others, have been introduced as ...
