PROCESS BIOTECHNOLOGY (New Edition).

S. N. MUKHOPADHYAY.

A pressing need of the current millennium is to exploit biological processes for commercialization and industrialization. In order to do this the fundamentals of Process Biotechnology need to be understood fully. This book integrates academic and practical bioprocessing principles towards process biotechnology development. It contains research generated database incorporated text, never before published in a single collated text.
