Content:
This book is a unique resource for state-of-the-art research findings on biotechnological innovations in the area of industrial and therapeutic enzymes, and special-function and extreme-nature enzymes such as ribozymes, therozymes, cold-adapted enzymes, etc, covering all aspects such as the producing micro-organisms, their mode of cultivation, downstream processing and applications. It provides a great deal of information on potential of enzymes for their commercial exploitation. This book gives up-to-date information on advances in enzyme research useful to both the expert and researchers entering the field as well. The vital information has been organized in an easy-to-use format that lets readers become familiar with highlights of the most relevant topics and includes photographs, figures, and tables.
