Synthesis of Poly-(R-hydroxyalkanoates) by Cupriavidus necator ATCC 17699 Using Mexican Avocado (Persea americana) Oil as a Carbon Source
Poly-R-hydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are polymers produced by a vast number of bacterial species under stress conditions. PHAs exhibit different thermal and mechanical properties that depend on their molecular structure. In this work, PHAs were produced using avocado oil as the carbon source. Cupriavidus...
