Practical Manual on Fermentation Technology

Practical Manual on Fermentation Technology is designed to introduce fermentation technology methods and protocols on the screening of industrially important microbes and production of various industrially important compounds, enzymes, antibiotics, vitamins, etc. by these microorganisms. It also provides assay protocols for the various industrially important microbial products. Each laboratory exercise contains an introductory unit, easy to follow instructions for various media and reagent preparation and procedure for screening of industrially important microbes, production and assay of various fermentation products. This manual will contribute practical knowledge in the area of industrial biotechnology, especially in the area of fermentation technology for teachers, researchers, students and technicians. This book is particularly useful for undergraduate and postgraduate students of Microbiology, Industrial Microbiology, Applied Microbiology, Biotechnology, Bioprocesses Technology and Bioresources Technology.
