Demonstrates how biological catalysis can be applied to the production of value added chemicals. Use is made of a diverse range of case studies to give a breadth of experience. It also reveals how bio-systems are being employed to produce a wide range of valuable commodities including antibiotics and other therapeutics, intermediary metabolites such as citrate, malate, gels and other valuable polymers.
