Popis: The high costs of bioplastics' production may hinder their commercialization. Development of new processes with high yields and in biorefineries can enhance diffusion of these materials. This work evaluated the production of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) from the combination of milled corn starchy fraction hydrolysate and crude glycerol as substrates by the strain Cupriavidus necator LPB 1421. After optimization steps, maximum accumulation of 62 % of PHB was obtained, which represents 11.64 g.L
