“…The rate of degradation of the PHB films was 25.3% and 50.2% within 30 days in compost containing 10% and 15% moisture, respectively, while in the compost containing the 20% and 25% moisture the PHB films were found to be degraded into fine pieces in 30 days resulting into 80.2% and 100% loss in wt of PHB films (Figure 4) indicating the importantance of moisture content of the compost. Similar observation was noted by Wang et al [11], Woolnough et al [31], and Kulkarni et al [10]. …”

“…Conventional solvent cast technique [10] was used for preparation of polymer blend sheet. The PHB powder extracted from Bacillus subtilis NG220 was mixed with soluble starch in ratio of 4 : 1 (w/w) and then dissloved in 20 mL of chloroform.…”

“…According to the optimal growth concentration of salt tolerated by cells, they could be roughly divided into two groups, moderate and extreme halophiles [9]. Recently, the application of some halophiles for PHA production and copolymer characterization were evaluated [4,7,10,11]. The application of halophiles as PHA producers significantly reduced the costs of fermentation and recovery processes: high salt concentrations were able to minimize the possibility of contamination by non-halophilic microorganisms, and thus the cost and energy consumption for sterilization can be decreased; haloarchaeal cells were able to be lyzed conveniently through osmotic shock treatment with salt-deficient water, and thus the cost for polymers recovery also can be decreased [12].…”

“…Poly(hydroxyvalerate) (PHV) is an important polymer (Figure ) that can be incorporated with PHB through injection, extrusion or compression moldings . The resulting copolymer of poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) has improved ductility, strength, and processability as compare to native PHB.…”
