Exploring nutrient limitation for polyhydroxyalkanoates synthesis by newly isolated strains of Aeromonas sp. using biodiesel-derived glycerol as a substrate

Aeromonas spp. strains isolated from activated sludge in a municipal wastewater treatment plant were found to be able to synthesize polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) utilizing pure and crude glycerol. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of the isolates exhibited similarity to Aeromonas hydrophila, A. aquatica, and...
