Volumes 3a, b and 4 focus on polyesters synthesized by bacteria and eukaryotic organisms
and all aspects of the biosynthesis and metabolism of these biopolymers as well as the
production and isolation are described. In addition, various synthetic polyesters and related
polymers synthesized by the chemical industry for the manufacture of biodegradable materials
are subject of these volumes.
