ABSTRACT:
An improved method for producing a microbial polyester comprising 3-hydroxybutyrate monomer units is disclosed, in which a strain belonging to the genus Alcaligenes is cultured in a liquid medium containing a carbon source selected from specific long chain fatty acids and derivatives thereof. The produced microbial polyester is useful in plastics and polymers which are free from environmental pollution problems, and in implanting materials and drug carriers, recovery of which is not necessary.
