Microbial Essentialism An Industrial Prospective

Microbial Essentialism: An Industrial Prospective refers to properties specifically possessed by microbes, including the secretion of metabolites which make them unique. These microorganisms can be commercially exploited for beneficial purposes such as the production of whole microbial cells, for products for direct use, or as starting raw materials in the manufacture of other commercial products. The book reviews the newest techniques, approaches, and options in the use of microorganisms for the manufacture of industrially important products such as pharmaceuticals, industrial enzymes, chemicals, proteins, foods and beverages, and fuels. Additional sections cover fundamental principles of established and innovative industrial microbiology and biotechnology processes and products while also discussing industrial microorganisms and the technology required for large-scale cultivation and isolation of fermentation products.
