Immobilized Microbial Cells: Research and Development - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

The cell immobilization emerged as a substitute for enzyme immobilization. Immobilization of cells covering specific enzymes has further advantages such as elimination of long and expensive procedures for enzymes separation and purification and it is vital to expand their application by enabling easy separation and purification of products from reaction mixtures and efficient recovery of catalyst. This book presents the potential of immobilized microbial cells for biological treatment, the fundamentals, history and advantages of immobilized cells compared with suspended cells, characteristics of support materials and the principal methods of immobilization, with special emphasis for natural immobilization by cell adsorption. The cell immobilization process has also triggered the interest in bioreactor design.
