Polyhydroxybutyrate biosynthesis in Caulobacter crescentus: molecular characterization of the polyhydroxybutyrate synthase [PDF]
Caulobacter crescentus was investigated with respect to polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) biosynthesis. Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) accumulation contributing to approximately 18% of the cell dry weight was obtained in the presence of glucose. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and gel permeation chromatography of the purified PHA showed that this polyester ...

Polyhydroxybutyrate Produce by Lignocellulose
The increasing worldwide concern of pollution is major threat and plastic is one of the major sources of the invasive pollution and pollution caused by plastic is one of the most widespread problems which are affecting our environment (Kumar,R,Sharma.2018).

Polyhydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate (PHBV) with Phenolic Acids for Active Food Packaging
PHBV films incorporating 3, 6 and 9% ferulic acid (FA) or p-coumaric acid (PCA) were obtained by melt blending and compression moulding. The films’ microstructures and thermal behaviours were analysed as well as their mechanical, optical and barrier ...

Cocoa Bean Shell as Promising Feedstock for the Production of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB)
Cocoa bean shell (CBS), a by-product of the chocolate industry, has been employed as a substrate to obtain poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) by fermentation with Bacillus firmus. With this aim, acid-thermal hydrolysis of CBS (20% w/v) was conducted at 135 °C

Polyhydroxybutyrate As A Biopolymer
This project is about the use of biopolymer (PHB) as an alternative form in place of non-biodegradable plastic, many types of research have been done on this polymer which shows it sharesa similar application as that of conventional plastic and also are biodegradable and biocompatible.

Processing Biodegradable Blends of Hemicellulose with Polyhydroxybutyrate and Poly (Lactic Acid) [PDF]
The bottleneck of hemicellulose as a bio-based material is its processability and property drawbacks (softening and hydrophilicity). Thus, mixing other biopolymers can be an alternative.

Beta-ketothiolases are involved in the beta-oxidation of fatty acids and the metabolism of hormones, benzenoids, and hydroxybutyrate. The expression of bacterial beta-ketothiolase in flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) results in an increase in endogenous beta-

Impact of Multiple Reprocessing on Properties of Polyhydroxybutyrate and Polypropylene
Biobased plastics have the potential to be sustainable, but to explore their circularity further, current end-of-life options need to be broadened.
