Synopsis

This volume brings together the work of an international group of academic and industrial engineers and basic scientists at the interface between contemporary molecular biology and biochemical processing. The papers herein communicate to basic scientists the current developments in the engineering of primary and secondary metabolic pathways; the production of biomolecules in microbial, mammalian, insect, plant and animal systems; and scale-up, purification and reactor design. Additional sections provide information on recent innovations in molecular biology related to such subjects as bioprocessing, environmental biotechnology, "in vitro" selection and amplification systems, and genomic science. The volume demonstrates how engineers may exploit biological principles in the design of engineering operations and how biologists may use engineering principles in biological research.
