Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) nanoparticles modulate metals toxicity in Hydra viridissima
The use of bioplastics (e.g., polyhydroxybutyrate) emerged as a solution to help reduce plastic pollution caused by conventional plastics. Nevertheless, bioplastics share many characteristics with their conventional counterparts, such as degradation to nano-sized particles and the ability to sorb environmental pollutants, like metals.

One-Factor-at-a-Time Optimization of Polyhydroxybutyrate Production and Growth of Alcaligenes eutrophus by Altering Culture Parameters and Incubation Time [PDF]
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are bioplastics derived from renewable resources such as vegetable oils, corn starch, or microbes. The polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a short-chain-length PHA, and the most important bioplastic produced by certain ...

PRODUCTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF POLYHYDROXYBUTYRATE (PHB): A BIODEGRADABLE POLYMER
Environmental pollution caused by synthetic plastics has become a major global concern. Biodegradable polymers such as Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), produced by microorganisms, offer an eco‑friendly alternative to conventional plastics. The present research paper focuses on the microbial production of PHB, its extraction, and characterization.
