A simple, efficient and economical method for the recovery of P(3HB-co-3HHx) was developed using various chemicals and parameters. The initial content of P(3HB-co-3HHx) in bacterial cells was 50–60 wt%, whereas the monomer composition of 3HHx used in this experiments was 3–5 mol%. It was found that sodium hydroxide (NaOH) was the most effective chemical for the recovery of biodegradable polymer. High polyhydroxyalkanoate purity and recovery yield both in the range of 80–90 wt% were obtained when 10–30 mg/ml of cells were incubated in NaOH at the concentration of 0.1 M for 60–180 min at 30 °C and polished using 20 % (v/v) of ethanol.
