Biotechnology of Terpenoid Production from Microbial Cell Factories

Biotechnology of Terpenoid Production from Microbial Cell Factories is a unique reference to help researchers, scientists, and scholars explore available strategies involved in the production of terpenoid-based, value-added compounds from GRAS status (Generally Recognized as Safe by FDA) microbes to address the associated challenges for the industry. It covers the most up-to-date information about microbial terpenoid production including culture condition modulation for the improved and high-specificity production of terpenoid and their in-situ extraction. Each class of terpenoid is explained in detail including explaining their nutritional and pharmaceutical information to an in-depth look at the molecular aspects for optimum learning and research applications. Provides an in-depth look at both natural and the metabolic engineering aspect of microbial terpenoid productionIncludes production strategies and existing challenges for each class of terpenoid from microbial sourcesPresents broad application opportunities of terpenoids such as food additives, pharmaceutical, and fragrancesIncludes brief chapter summaries and a glossary for each chapter to simplify technical applications  INDICE: 1.
