Abstract
Pseudomonas resinovorans produced poly-beta-hydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) when grown on hydrocarbons but not on glucose. In a chemostat culture, the PHA composition was beta-hydroxybutyrate (C4)-beta-hydroxyhexanoate (C6)-beta-hydroxyoctanoate (C8)-beta-hydroxydecanoate (C10) (1:15:75:9) on octanoate and C4-C6-C8-C10 (8:62:23:7) on hexanoic acid. Contrary to the reported behavior of Pseudomonas oleovorans, the PHA accumulation rate increased under ammonium limitation on octanoate.Entities:
