Abstract
⺠Combined glycerine and levulinic acid result in short-chain (sc) PHA synthesis. ⺠Sc-PHA properties were dictated by substrate ratio and fermentation duration. ⺠Reduced PHA molar masses based on glycerine-based chain termination. ⺠PHA compositions ranged from poly-3-hydroxybutyrate to poly-3-hydroxyvalerate.
