Applied Biochemistry and Bioengineering

Biochemistry covers a range of scientific disciplines, including genetics, microbiology, forensics, plant science and medicine. Because of its breadth, biochemistry is very important and advances in this field of science over the past 100 years have been staggering. This book describes the techniques for the isolation and purification of intracellular and extracellular enzymes for use on an industrial scale. It deals with immobilized enzyme processes, with an emphasis on immobilized glucose isomerase and the amylolytic enzymes related to the production of high-fructose syrups from starch. This book will be useful to those using, or teaching, biotechnology. It provides an extensive review of the literature on immobilized cells and organelles and, provides pointers to the most suitable immobilization techniques for a wide variety of systems.
