SELECTION OF MEDIA, SUITABLE FOR Azotobactervinelandii BIOSYNTHESIS OF Poly-[3-hydroxybutyrate AND ITS EXTRACTION WITH CHLOROFORM.

Mbachu, I. A. C*

Petroleum derived plastics constitute environmental problem because they are not biodegradable. Alternative substrates for manufacture of biodegradable plastics are necessary to safeguard the environment. Some bacterial genera produce Poly-p hydroxybutyrate (PHB), under adverse nutrient conditions, which serve as alternatives for petroleum deriv...
