Biosynthesis of poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) containing a predominant amount of 3‐hydroxyvalerate by engineered Escherichia coli expressing propionate‐CoA transferase
Of the biodegradable polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) (P(HB-co-HV)) is often considered for fabrication of biocompatible and absorbable medical devices and other applications. Depending on the application, however, specific mechanical or processing properties must be improved. To address these required properties, we sought to alter the monomer composition of the copolymer by a combination genetic engineering in an Escherichia coli host and carbon substrate feeding.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 August 2012.
All research outputs
#22,692,577
of 27,778,980 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Applied Microbiology
#4,041
of 4,932 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#147,086
of 185,177 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Applied Microbiology
#28
of 31 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,778,980 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,932 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.5. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 185,177 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 9th percentile – i.e., 9% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 31 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 3rd percentile – i.e., 3% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
