Microaerobic insights into production of polyhydroxyalkanoates containing 3-hydroxyhexanoate via native reverse β-oxidation from glucose in Ralstonia eutropha H16.

These findings shed new light on the robust characteristics of Ralstonia eutropha H16 and have the potential for the development of new strategies for practical P(3HB-co-3HHx) copolyesters production from sugars under low-aerated conditions.
