Summary: | Industrial biotechnology is a multi-disciplinary area employing
biotechnology knowledge for industrial and commercialisation
purposes. One of the focal practices includes the production of
industrial products through the use of cells or component of cells
namely enzymes. Industrial enzymes of microbial origin are highly
demanded due to their applications in a wide variety of
processes. Enzyme-mediated reactions are attractive alternatives to the more tedious and
expensive chemical methods. Being high in specific activity, efficiency and
biodegradability coupled with the low level by-product formations and the capability
to work under mild conditions, enzymes are widely used in a range of applications such as
in detergent, food and feed industries, human and animal health, waste treatment and the production
of fine chemicals. |
