Scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transmission analysis of polyhydroxyalkanoates isolated from bacteria species from abattoir in Ota, Nigeria
This study reports production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) from microbial species obtained from abattoir by altering different carbon source (acetate and molasses) in minimal salt medium. The isolates were characterized by understanding their physiological responses to biochemical tests, optical microscopy examination and comparison to standard reference organisms. They were presumably...
