abstract：:Ralstonia eutropha H16 is a Gram-negative lithoautotrophic bacterium and is one of the best biopolymer-producing bacteria. It can grow to high cell densities either under lithoautotrophic or under heterotrophic conditions, which makes it suitable for a number of biotechnological applications. Also, R. eutropha H16 can...
