Production of polyhydroxyalkanoates by bacterium Schlegelella thermodepolymerans
 Černý, Vojtěch ; Černayová, Diana (referee) ; Pernicová, Iva (advisor)
The aim of this work was to study capability of various strains of thermophilic bacteria Schlegelella thermodepolymerans incorporate diverse monomer units to structure of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA). Precursors for production mcl-PHA, 4-hydroxybutyrate and 3-hydroxyvalerate were tested. The theoretical part deals with characteristic of studied polymers, properties and applications and usage of thermophilic bacteria in industry. In experimental part there were undergone cultivations with different precursors, which were added in different times and concentrations. Four bacterial strains S. thermodepolymerans from various public collections of microorganisms were used during these cultivations. Levulinic acid, added at start of cultivation, was chosen as the best precursor. Afterwards there was cultivation with concentration line to find out, whether concentration influence composition of copolymer. Increasing the amount of precursor led to decreasing quantity of biomass and PHA, but there were very interesting materials with high amount of 3HV. Addition 8 g/l of precursor led up to 52 %. Subsequently there was found out molecular height of polymers by size-excluion chromatography (SEC) combined with multi-angle light scattering (MALS).
