Microbial Bioreactors for Industrial Molecules - by Sudhir Pratap Singh & Santosh Kumar Upadhyay (Hardcover)

About the Book

"High-value biomolecules enable researchers and developers to create cost-effective biological systems for the production of biomolecules in multiple sectors. Microorganism-based bioreactor platforms have explored the bulk production of a variety of biomolecules of pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, cosmetic, food, and agricultural significance. The high commercial and industrial potential of these biomolecules impart the biological relevance of plant and microorganism-based biodevices for the production of natural-molecule based formulations, which utilize the well-being of society. Microbial Bioreactors for Industrial Molecules will present comprehensive coverage on bioreactors. The book presents a holistic approach of bioreactors by including the microorganism based biological devices for the production of natural molecules of notable implementation in the health and agriculture sectors. The book will cover the basic, applied, biosynthetic, and translational approaches for the exploitation of microbial technology for production of high-value biomolecules"--

Book Synopsis

Microbial Bioreactors for Industrial Molecules

Harness the planet's most numerous resources with this comprehensive guide

Microorganisms constitute the invisible majority of all living creatures on Earth. They are found virtually everywhere on the planet, including in environments too extreme for any larger organisms to exist. They form a hugely significant resource whose potential value for human society cannot be overlooked. The creation of microorganism- based bioreactors for the industrial production of valuable biomolecules has the potential to revolutionize a range of industries and fields.

Microbial Bioreactors for Industrial Molecules provides a comprehensive introduction to these bioresources. It covers all potential approaches to the use of microbial technology and the production of high-value biomolecules for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and agricultural industries, among others. The book's rigorous detail and global, holistic approach to harnessing the power of the planetary microbiome make it an invaluable introduction to this growing area of research and production.

Readers will also find:

• Detailed coverage of basic, applied, biosynthetic, and translational approaches to the use of microbial technology
• Discussion of industrially produced microbe-borne enzymes including invertase, lipase, keratinase, protease, and more
• Approaches for using microbial bioreactors to generate biofuels

Microbial Bioreactors for Industrial Molecules is essential for scientists and researchers in microbiology and biotechnology, as well as for professionals in the biotech industries and graduate students studying the applications of the life sciences.
