Determining paracrystallinity in mixed-tacticity polyhydroxybutyrates [PDF]
Journal of Applied Crystallography, 2021 Recently, the authors reported on the development of crystallinity in mixed-tacticity polyhydroxybutyrates. Comparable values reported in the literature vary depending on the manner of determination, the discrepancies being partially attributable to scattering from paracrystalline portions of the material.

Telechelic Polyhydroxyalkanoates/Polyhydroxybutyrates (PHAs/PHBs)
, 2017 Poly(3-hydroxyalkanoate)s, PHAs, are natural polyesters collected as intracellular granules as a result of a metabolic stress upon unbalanced growth, owing to a limited supply of a necessary nutrient and to the presence of an excess of a carbon source [1,2,3,4,5,6,7-8]. PHAs have material properties ranging from rigid and highly crystalline to elastic,

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 Due to increased environmental pressures, significant research has focused on finding suitable biodegradable plastics to replace ubiquitous petrochemical-derived polymers. Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are a class of polymers that can be synthesized by microorganisms and are biodegradable, making them suitable candidates.

Polyhydroxybutyrate biosynthesis in Caulobacter crescentus: molecular characterization of the polyhydroxybutyrate synthase [PDF]
Microbiology, 2001 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 ...
