Description:
Neuware - How can industry profit from the biochemical tricks of cold-adapted organisms This book covers a range of aspects in this fascinating field, from genetic tools to environmental biotechnology. Seller Inventory # 9783540649724
Synopsis:
There is an increasing interest of biotechnologists in the potential of cold-adapted organisms, since they play a major role in the processes of nutrient turnover and primary biomass production in cold ecosystems. Essential advantages of the application of such organisms are the rapid microbial metabolism at low temperatures, the low activation energy for enzymatic substrate hydrolysis and the low thermostability of enzymes from cold-adapted organisms. Benefits can also be deduced from the frost hardiness and frost resistance of cold-adapted plants and animals.
