Production of poly- �?²-hydroxybutyrate (phb) from Bacillus cereus

Madhusudan Reddy D.D, Debarati Paul

 Industrial soil samples were screened for isolation of efficient biopolymer producing bacteria. Six isolates were obtained with different efficiencies of biopolymer production. A Gram positive, endospore producing bacterium produced highest biopolymer than other isolates. This bacterium is identified as Bacillus cereus by conventional morphological and biochemical studies.
