Textbook of Enzyme Biotechnology

By Annabelle Pearson

Enzymes are large biological molecules serving as catalysts to speed up chemical reactions. Substrates are the molecules that enzymes react upon, ultimately leading to their conversion into different molecules known as products. Their production involves techniques like recombinant expression in chosen host microorganisms, as well as recovery, fermentation, and formulation processes. Enzymes find extensive use across various industries such as biofuels, brewing, and chemicals, with the detergent sector being the primary consumer, employing them for tasks like stain removal, fabric protection, and softening. Additionally, enzymes play vital roles in sectors like textiles, pulp and paper, leather, and animal feed. This book offers substantial insights into enzyme biotechnology and its associated domains, aiming to elucidate lesser-explored facets of the field. It serves as an invaluable reference for graduate and postgraduate students seeking a comprehensive understanding of this critical discipline.
