Original Abstract

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are very interesting and promising materials microbial polyester which are produced by many various bacteria. Additionally, there are completely biodegradable and biocompatible, providing a wide range of end uses. Extremophilic organisms live in extreme conditions and due to this fact, the biotechnological process is not so demanding on sterility and the cost of production is lower. We focused on PHA production by bacteria that like hot - they are called thermophiles. PHA production has been confirmed in several species, but the genus Aneurinibacillus appears to be the most interesting due to its unique properties and ability to produce interesting and very unusual copolymers.

Keywords
