Polyhydroxyalkanoates from industrial cheese whey: Production and characterization of polymers with differing hydroxyvalerate content

The composition of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) monomers affects the properties and final applications of PHA polymers. This study focused on the feasibility of producing tailored PHA differing in hydroxyvalerate (HV) content, through manipulation of the acidogenic fermented stream composition, and on...
