1. ASSESSMENT OF POLYHYDROXYALKANOATE SYNTHESIS IN SUBMERGED CULTIVATION OF Cupriavidus necator AND Burkholderia cepacia STRAINS USING SOYBEAN AS SUBSTRATE
ABSTRACT Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are biocompatible and biodegradable polyesters produced by prokaryotic microbes for energy storage and carbon reserve. These polymers are an option to diminish the massive impact caused by inadequate disposal of synthetic plastics. In this study, evaluation and characterization of PHA produced by Cupriavidus necator (IPT

2. Evaluation of short-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoate accumulation in Bacillus aryabhattai
Abstract This study was focused on the polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) accumulation property of Bacillus aryabhattai isolated from environment. Twenty-four polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) producers were screened out from sixty-two environmental bacterial isolates based on Sudan Black B colony staining. Based on their PHA accumulation property, six promising isolates we

3. Simplified recovery process of Ralstonia solanacearum-synthesized polyhydroxyalkanoates via chemical extraction complemented by liquid-liquid phase separation
Poly (3-hydroxybutyrate) (P(3HB)) is the most studied thermoplastic biopolymer belonging to the polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) family, the main features of which include rapid biodegradability and biocompatibility. The bioplastic recovery process is an important step during production and can directly influence the characteristics of PHAs. However, more efficien

4. Production of medium-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoate by Pseudomonas oleovorans grown in sugary cassava extract supplemented with andiroba oil
Pseudomonas oleovorans were grown on sugary cassava extracts supplemented with andiroba oil for the synthesis of a mediumchain- length polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA MCL). The concentration of total sugars in the extract was approximately: 40 g/L in culture 1, 15 g/L in cultures 2 and 3, and 10 g/L in culture 4. Supplementation with 1% andiroba oil and 0.2 g/L of

5. Agrowaste-based Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production using hydrolytic potential of Bacillus thuringiensis IAM 12077
The study identified the innate enzymatic potential (amylase) of the PHB producing strain B.thuringiensis IAM 12077 and explored the same for cost-effective production of PHB using agrowastes, eliminating the need for pretreatment (acid hydrolysis and/or commercial enzyme). Comparative polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production by B. thuringiensis IAM 12077 in bi

6. Agro-industrial residues and starch for growth and co-production of polyhydroxyalkanoate copolymer and α-amylase by Bacillus sp. CFR-67
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) and α-amylase (α-1,4 glucan-4-glucanohydrolase, E.C. 3.2.1.1) were co-produced by Bacillus sp. CFR-67 using unhydrolysed corn starch as a substrate. Bacterial growth and polymer production were enhanced with the supplementation of hydrolysates of wheat bran (WBH) or rice bran (RBH) individually or in combination (5-20 g L-1, bas

7. OBTENÇÃO E CARACTERIZAÇÃO DE NANOCOMPÓSITOS À BASE DE POLIHIDROXIALCANOATO/ATAPULGITA / EXTRACTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF NANOCOMPOSITES BASED ON POLYHYDROXYALKANOATE / ATTAPULGITE
Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) PHBV is a biodegradable polyester produced by various microorganisms, which has been studied as an option for the production of disposable items in place of polymers derived from petroleum, thus contributing to the preservation of the environment. However, this thermoplastic has some disadvantages that limit its u

9. Is propionate alfa-oxidation involved in the reduction of biodegradable plastic production in Burkholderia sacchari? / Alfa-oxidação de propionato está envolvida na redução da produção de plástico biodegradável em Burkholderia sacchari?
Burkholderia sacchari is a new bacterial species from brazilian soil, able to grow in sucrose, accumulating intracellular granules of polyester belonging to the polyhydroxyalkanoate family (PHA). When cultivated on sucrose, the homopolymer poly-3-hydroxybutyrate is accumulated by this bacterium, which is used as biodegradable and biocompatible plastic. When

10. Chromobacterium violaceum: caracterizaÃÃo cultural, bioquÃmica, molecular e detecÃÃo da produÃÃo de polihidroxialcanoato - PHA
Studies were carried out with thirteen strains of Chromobacterium violaceum evaluating the biochemical characteristics, the genetic variability and the polyhydroxyalkanoate production. The isolates had demonstrated to greater growth on the Luria Bertani medium, supplemented with glucose. All the isolates had been negative for the urea tests, manitol, lactose

The bacterial production of polyesters belonging to the polyhydroxyalkanoate family (PHA) has generated biodegradable, biocompatible and environmentally friendly new materials. Properties and applications of PHA depend on monomer composition, which is dependent both on the substrate available and the metabolic apparatus of the PHA-producing microorganism. Bu

12. The influence of substrate source on the growth of Ralstonia eutropha, aiming at the production of polyhydroxyalkanoate
With the aim of producing polyhydroxyalkanoates, a study of the influence of culture conditions (nitrogen and carbon sources and temperature) on the growth of Ralstonia eutropha in stirred flasks was carried out and the use of some low-cost sources (hydrolyzed lactose, inverted sugar and corn steep liquor) as evaluated. The best specific growth rate was obta
