Factor analysis of fermentation for the production of biopolymer in shake-flasks
Poly( ß- hydroxybutyric acid ) or (PHB) is a natural, biodegradable polymer, which is accumulated as an energy reserve material by a large number of bacteria when nutrient such as nitrogen source is available in limiting concentrations in the present of excess carbon source. The major problem associ...
