Book Description
Recent developments in genetic engineering and protein chemistry are bringing ever more powerful means of analysis to bear on the study of enzyme structure. This volume reviews the most important types of industrial enzymes. In a balanced manner it covers three interrelated aspects of paramount importance for enzyme performance: three-dimensional protein structure, physicochemical and catalytic properties, and the range of both classical and novel applications.

Book Description
Leading experts from all over the world present an overview of the use of enzymes in industry for: - the production of bulk products, such as glucose, or fructose - food processing and food analysis - laundry and automatic dishwashing detergents - the textile, pulp and paper and animal feed industries - clinical diagnosis and therapy - genetic engineering. The book also covers identification methods of new enzymes and the optimization of known ones, as well as the regulatory aspects for their use in industrial applications. Up to date and wide in scope, this is a chance for non-specialists to acquaint themselves with this rapidly growing field. '...The quality...is so great that there is no hesitation in recommending it as ideal reading for any student requiring an introduction to enzymes. ...Enzymes in Industry - should command a place in any library, industrial or academic, where it will be frequently used.' The Genetic Engineer and Biotechnologist 'Enzymes in Industry' is an excellent introduction into the field of applied enzymology for the reader who is not familiar with the subject. ... offers a broad overview of the use of enzymes in industrial applications. It is up-to-date and remarkable easy to read, despite the fact that almost 50 different authors contributed. The scientist involved in enzyme work should have this book in his or her library. But it will also be of great value to the marketing expert interested in the present use of enzymes and their future in food and nonfood applications.' Angewandte Chemie 'This book should be available to all of those working with, or aspiring to work with, enzymes. In particular academics should use this volume as a source book to ensure that their 'new' projects will not 'reinvent the wheel'.' Journal of Chemical Technology and Biotechnology

Book Description
Leading experts in the enzymology field present herewith an overview of the use of enzymes in therapy, genetic engineering, pulp and paper, textile, detergent, food and animal feed. The book carries up to date information and presents a wider perspective scope wise in the field of enzymology. The book would be advantageous not only for Undergraduate, PG and PhD students but also to non-specialists who may acquaint themselves with this rapidly growing field. We feel extremely proud in recommending this book as ideal reading for any of the above students engaged in basic and applied research. Any library, industrial and academic platforms strongly suits this book as it is a very relevant in-demand title on key industrial enzymes. Academic fraternity, genetic engineers and biotechnologists would be greatly enriched with the current knowledge on key enzymes of industrial relevance. The book would be able to go well with other readers as well who are not familiar with the subject. Also the book offers a broad overview of the use of enzymes in industrial applications carrying the most advanced information and presents a simplistic overview about the key industrial enzymes which is otherwise a very complex process. This is itself remarkable as almost 40 different authors contributed to this book and still the content is flawless, easy to comprehend and written in a very simple language. The researchers involved in enzyme work should have this book in his or her library. But it will also be of great value to the marketing experts interested in the present use of enzymes and their future perspective in food and nonfood applications. All the researchers working with or willing to work with enzymes should have this book to ensure that their research projects run smoothly supplemented with the most current information on industrial enzymes.

Book Description
Immobilized Enzymes for Industrial Reactors aims to guide the engineer and scientist along the path toward the industrial application of immobilized enzymes. It is necessary to identify the hazards and pitfalls that will be encountered, not only in the initial research efforts, but also during the final engineering phases of a commercial program. Each contributing factor in an immobilized enzyme system will be scrutinized by the authors in an effort to accomplish the overall objectives. This book comprises 10 chapters, with the first being an introduction to and general history of immobilized enzymes. The next chapters go on to discuss basic enzymology; controlled-pore glasses for enzyme immobilization; carriers; immobilization by adsorption and inorganic bridge formation; immobilization by covalent attachment and by entrapment; characteristics of free vs. immobilized enzymes; immobilized coenzymes; design and operation of immobilized enzyme reactors; and applications of immobilized enzymes. This book will be of interest to practitioners in the fields of chemistry and engineering.
