Enzymology for Biotechnologists

Enzymology for Biotechnologists provides a comprehensive introduction to enzymology with a strong focus on its applications in biotechnology. Chapters cover the fundamental principles of enzyme structure, function, kinetics, and assays, and extends into advanced topics such as enzyme production, immobilization, reactor design, process intensification, and the use of enzymes in low-water and green solvent systems. Special attention is given to industrial applications, grey and white biotechnology, and the integration of processes that highlight sustainability and innovation. The book presents enzymology from a perspective of biotechnology, and focuses on scale-up, process design, and industrial applications. This targeted approach makes sure that BTech, MTech, MSc, and PhD students, as well as researchers and professionals, gain not only a solid understanding of enzyme science but also its translation into real-world biotechnological processes.
