Production of polyhydroxybutyrates and carbohydrates in a mixed cyanobacterial culture: Effect of nutrients limitation and photoperiods [PDF]

open access: yesNew Biotechnology, 2018
In the present study, different photoperiods and nutritional conditions were applied to a mixed wastewater-borne cyanobacterial culture in order to enhance the intracellular accumulation of polyhydroxybutyrates (PHBs) and carbohydrates.

Bioplastic Production by Bacillus wiedmannii AS-02 OK576278 Using Different Agricultural Wastes

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Polyhydroxybutyrates (PHBs) are macromolecules synthesized by bacteria. Because of their fast degradability under natural environmental conditions, PHBs were selected as alternatives for the production of biodegradable plastics.

Monitoring PHB production in Synechocystis sp. with hyperspectral images

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2022
Microalgae wastewater treatment systems have the potential for producing added-value products. More specifically, cyanobacteria are able to accumulate polyhydroxybutyrates (PHBs), which can be extracted and used for bioplastics production.

Biosynthesis and Characteristics of Polyhydroxyalkanoates. 1. Polyhydroxybutyrates of Azotobacter vinelandii N-15

open access: yesChemistry and Chemical Technology, 2020
The biosynthesis of cellular polymers of Azotobacter vinelandii N-15 strain using molasses as a carbon source has been optimized. The highest yield of polymer (25.8 % of cell mass) was obtained on a nutrient medium with a molasses concentration of 50 g/l.

Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Mixed-Tacticity Polyhydroxybutyrates and Their Association with Iso- and Atactic Chain Segment Length Distributions

open access: yesMacromolecules, 2019
We investigated the effect of including S enantiomers on the mechanical and thermal properties of predominantly (R)-β-polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB). From tensile testing, we determined resulting ratios of meso to racemo diads, for which elastic modulus ...
