Finding of Novel Galactose Utilizing Halomonas sp. YK44 for Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) Production. [PDF]

Polymers (Basel), 2022
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a biodegradable bioplastic with potential applications as an alternative to petroleum-based plastics. However, efficient PHB production remains difficult. The main cost of PHB production is attributed to carbon sources; hence, finding inexpensive sources is important.

Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) tubular scaffolds for nerve regeneration

The FASEB Journal, 2021
Introduction Peripheral nerve injuries remain a challenge in regenerative medicine. Biocompatible polymer tubular nerve guides (GNTs) have been shown to be a promising strategy in the regeneration of total nerve disruption injuries (neurotmesis). The purpose of this systematic literature review was to search and

Cyanobacterial Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB): Screening, Optimization and Characterization. [PDF]

PLoS One, 2016
In modern life petroleum-based plastic has become indispensable due to its frequent use as an easily available and a low cost packaging and moulding material. However, its rapidly growing use is causing aquatic and terrestrial pollution. Under these circumstances, research and development for biodegradable plastic (bioplastics) is inevitable ...

Endogenous Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) Regulates TRPM8 Channel [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2011
The transient receptor potential channel of the melastatin subfamily TRPM8 is the cold and menthol receptor. Our recent findings indicate that functional TRPM8 channel exists in a form of supramolecular complex of protein and two ubiquitous homopolymers inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) and polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB).

Pro-ecological packaging materials based on polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2018
Polymers are common used in everyday life. For economic reasons and specific properties, they replace traditional materials such as glass, wood or paper. The use of polymeric materials generates waste, whose disposal is difficult. Legislation and pressures on the use of pro-ecological materials have increased interest in biodegradable polymers.
