Bacterial biopolymers are a hot and promising field of research with numerous potential applications in agriculture, petroleum exploration, and the production of biodegradable plastics. This comprehensive volume delves into the world of bacterial biopolymers, providing a detailed overview of their classification, structure, properties, and diverse applications.
The book begins by introducing the main classes of bacterial biopolymers, including polysaccharides and polyesters or polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs). It explains their definition, classification, detection, extraction, and characterization techniques. The authors also delve into the fermentation process employed to produce PHAs and the biochemical characterization of PHA-producing bacterial strains.
Furthermore, the volume explores the in vitro biodegradation study of PHA films by soil microorganisms and their potential use in enhancing the stability of colloidal silver nanoparticles (SNP). It sheds light on the beneficial properties of PHAs, such as their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and thermal stability, making them attractive materials for various industries.
This volume serves as an invaluable resource for researchers, scientists, and engineers interested in exploring the potential of bacterial biopolymers. It provides detailed information on the concerned bacteria, the biochemical characteristics of biopolymers, and their diverse applications. With its comprehensive coverage, the book is a must-have for anyone seeking to stay updated in this rapidly evolving field.
