Effects of the Monomeric Components of Poly-hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyhexanoate on the Growth of <i>Vibrio penaeicida</i> In Vitro and on the Survival of Infected Kuruma Shrimp (<i>Marsupenaeus japonicus</i>)

Effects of the Monomeric Components of Poly-hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyhexanoate on the Growth of <i>Vibrio penaeicida</i> In Vitro and on the Survival of Infected Kuruma Shrimp (<i>Marsupenaeus japonicus</i>)

Here, we investigated the inhibitory effects of the biodegradable, water-insoluble polymer poly-hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyhexanoate (PHBH) and its two constituent monomers, the hydroxyalkanoic acids 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) and 3-hydroxyhexanoate (3HH), on the growth of the shrimp-pathogenic bacteriu...
