Synopsis

This stimulating monograph is a much needed response to the increasing use of biocatalysts in organic synthesis. In over 300 well–referenced pages, it

∗ reviews in detail applications and other aspects of the most widely used enzymes (e.g. hydrolases, oxidoreductases, and baker′s yeast) ∗ illustrates with examples the potential in biocatalysis of other, less frequently used enzymes and microorganisms
∗ discusses general problems of biocatalysis (e.g. stereo–chemistry of transformations, methods of influencing selectivity)
∗ indicates future trends in biocatalysis.

Researchers and students in preparative organic chemistry, biotechnology and biochemistry will find this up–to–date monograph highly valuable in their daily work.
