For the production of PHB, Alcaligenes eutrophus has been widely used because it is easy to grow, and its physiological and biochemical changes during the PHB synthesis is understood in details. A very high concentration and productivity of PHB could be obtained by fed-batch culture of Alcaligenes eutrophus with phosphate limitation in 50 L fermenter.展开更多
