Ks. Cho et al., POLY(HYDROXYBUTYRATE-CO-HYDROXY-VALERATE) FROM SWINE WASTE LIQUOR BY AZOTOBACTER-VINELANDII UWD, Biotechnology letters, 19(1), 1997, pp. 7-10
Azotobacter vinelandii UWD produced 2.0 g/L of cell dry weight includi
ng 34.0 wt% of poly (hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) with 7
.9mol% of hydroxyvalerate (HV) from two-fold diluted swine waste liquo
r. Supplementation of 30 g glucose/L increased cell dry weight to 9.4
g/L with 58.3 wt% of PHBV and 4.3 mol% of HV at a PHBV production rate
of 0.11 g PHBV/L-h.
