Biomedical Applications Of Polyhydroxyalkanoate And Derivatives

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) can serve as a substrate for further conversion into C4 and C5 compounds. Through esterification, PHAs can be transformed into alkyl hydroxyalkanoates and alkyl alkenoates. These derivatives hold potential as valuable precursors for producing alkadienes and alkenedioic acids, such as butadiene and butenedioic acid.
