Production and Characterization of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) by Thermophilic Geobacillus sp. Strain SL28 Isolated from a Natural Hot Spring
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are biodegradable microbial polyesters that may reduce dependence on petroleum-derived plastics, but broader use remains constrained by production costs and tightly controlled cultivation. Thermophilic microorganisms have attracted increasing attention as promising PHA producers because the...
