Production of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-<i>co</i>-3-hydroxyhexanoate) from CO<sub>2</sub> via pH-Stat Jar Cultivation of an Engineered Hydrogen-Oxidizing Bacterium <i>Cupriavidus necator</i>

The copolyester of 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) and 3-hydoxyhexanoate (3HHx), PHBHHx, is a biodegradable plastic characterized by high flexibility, softness, a wide process window, and marine biodegradability. PHBHHx is usually produced from structurally related carbon sources, such as vegetable oils or...
