Detection by transmission electron microscopy of PHAs accumulated in P. pseudoalcaligenes CECT5344. Cells were grown with 50 mM sodium acetate and 2 mM ammonium chloride (a) or with 12.5 mM octanoate plus ammonium chloride (b), sodium cyanide (c), or cyanide from jewelry residue (d), each at 2 mM initial concentration. Samples were analyzed at 30 h of cultivation, before cyanide was completely consumed in cyanide-containing media.
