Biocatalysis and Biodegradation: Microbial Transformation of Organic Compounds

A textbook and resource for professional scientists working in the areas of industrial microbiology, environmental microbiology, and biodegradation. - Details both the fundamental concepts of the microbial transformation of organic compounds as well as its application for biotechnology and biodegradation. - Offers comprehensive coverage of microbial catabolism from the group that developed the online Biocatalysis/Biodegradation Database (http: //umbbd.msi.umn.edu/). - Discusses the logic of catabolism, which is important in the context of genome annotation and predicting biodegradation reactions.
