Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Biomolecular engineering is a discipline of engineering that draws from three different fields of study, namely, molecular biology, biophysical chemistry and chemical engineering. It studies the implementation of engineering principles and practices for the intentional manipulation of biomolecules. This field of engineering integrates knowledge of biological processes with the knowledge of chemical engineering to provide molecular level solutions for issues and problems related to environment, agriculture, energy, industry, food production, biotechnology and medicine. Molecules of biological origin include peptides, proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates and lipids. The biomolecules are manipulated within this field keeping in mind their structures, functions, properties and their applicability in areas such as environmental remediation, crop and livestock production, biofuel cells, and biomolecular diagnostics. Biomolecular engineering is used to observe and investigate the thermodynamics and kinetics of molecular recognition in enzymes, antibodies, DNA hybridization, bio-conjugation/bio-immobilization, and bioseparations. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the field of biomolecular engineering. It will serve as a valuable source of reference for graduate and postgraduate students.
