Integrated sustainable process for polyhydroxyalkanoates production from lignocellulosic waste by purple phototrophic bacteria

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, 2021
Purple phototrophic bacteria (PPB) showed an enormous potential for polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) production using the hydrolysate from lignocellulosic waste as feedstock. Thermal hydrolysis pretreatment was carried out at three different temperatures (120,

Mussel Inspired Chemistry and Bacteria Derived Polymers for Oral Mucosal Adhesion and Drug Delivery

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Ulceration of the oral mucosa is common, can arise at any age and as a consequence of the pain lessens enjoyment and quality of life. Current treatment options often involve the use of topical corticosteroids with poor drug delivery systems and ...

The Potential of Polyhydroxyalkanoate Production from Food Wastes

open access: yesApplied Food Biotechnology, 2019
Background and objective: Over 1 billion tons of foods are wasted every year (not consumed by humans or animals). Most of this waste ends up in landfills. As the global population increases, mankind must look for more sustainable means of living.

Beyond Intracellular Accumulation of Polyhydroxyalkanoates: Chiral Hydroxyalkanoic Acids and Polymer Secretion

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are ubiquitous prokaryotic storage compounds of carbon and energy, acting as sinks for reducing power during periods of surplus of carbon source relative to other nutrients.

Continuous bioreactor production of polyhydroxyalkanoates in Haloferax mediterranei

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
In this work, the viability of continuous poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) production with controlled composition in Haloferax mediterranei when fed volatile fatty acids is demonstrated.

Biomedical Applications of Polyhydroxyalkanoates [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Journal of Microbiology, 2017
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are produced by a large number of microbes under stress conditions such as high carbon (C) availability and limitations of nutrients such as nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, and oxygen. Here, microbes store C as granules of PHAs-energy reservoir.

Biodegradable and Biocompatible Polyhydroxy-alkanoates (PHA): Auspicious Microbial Macromolecules for Pharmaceutical and Therapeutic Applications

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are bio-based microbial biopolyesters; their stiffness, elasticity, crystallinity and degradability are tunable by the monomeric composition, selection of microbial production strain, substrates, process parameters during ...
