内容简介

Microbial Biotechnology Exploiting Solid State Fermentation is the first book on the specific subject of solid state fermentation (SSF) completely written by one UK University academic, as a result of the author's 23 years experience in research, teaching, doctoral and postdoctoral supervision and publication in the field of microbial biotechnology.This book covers the facts of microbial technology, the use of microorganisms, their primary and secondary metabolites as important commercial products and their industrial applications. The techniques of microbial cultivation and various fermentation systems have been discussed for the selection of an appropriate technology for the production of microbial metabolites of commercial importance. The book is organised into five sections covering the basics of microbial biotechnology, the exploitation of SSF in industrial biotechnology, biotechnology of bioactive molecules, environmental biotechnology, and food biotechnology.
