Original Abstract

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are very interesting and promising materials microbial polyester which are produced by many various bacteria. Additionally, there are completely biodegradable and biocompatible, providing a wide range of end uses. PHA can also be produced from renewable sources, making them a suitable alternative to plastics made from petroleum. Thermophilic bacteria of the genus Aneurinibacillus are able to produce not only homopolymers composed only of 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) units, but also interesting copolymers which, in addition to the 3HB monomer, contain 4-hydroxybutyrate or other very unusual monomers such as 3-hydroxyvalerate, 4-hydroxyvalerate or 5-hydroxyvalerate.
