In this thesis (R)-3-hydroxycarboxylic acids (HA) from bacterial polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) were investigated, regarding their biotechnological production as well as intracellular processes of their formation and degradation. An innovative bioprocess to provide HA as fine chemicals for further applications is presented. The method is straightforward, easy to handle and results in high yields (introduced in chapters 2-4). Following the observations of ...
