Abstract:This study was on isolation, purification and characterization of PHB from Vibrio mimicus strain isolated from sediment samples collected from Vellar estuary, Parangipettai. PHB produced from the cells that were grown at mass scale level under optimized growth parameters were used in the present study. The FT-IR analysis showed the presence of CH 2 -CH 3 -C=0 methyl esters in the extract and it also confirmed that the isolated product as PHB. Regarding degradation in the present work the complete bioplastic de… Show more
