Biocatalysts are increasingly used by chemists engaged in fine chemical synthesis within both industry and academia. Today, there exists a huge choice of high-tech enzymes and whole cell biocatalysts, which add enormously to the repertoire of synthetic possibilities. Practical Methods for Biocatalysis and Biotransformations is a "how-to" guide focussing on commercially available enzymes and strains of microorganisms that are readily obtained from culture collections. The source of starting materials and reagents, hints, tips and safety advice (where appropriate) are given to ensure, as far as…mehr

"It starts with a review of the current use of biocatalysis in the pharmaceutical industry. Although this is focused on a large pharmaceutical company (GlaxoSmithKline), it covers a wide variety of aspects of the industry and offers insightful comparisons of biocatalysis with 'traditional' organic synthesis." (Chemistry World, July 2010)
"I can recommend to all those who are interesting in carrying out biotransformations in the laboratory, and the book should help persuade those who have never used a biotransformation in an organic synthesis, to try one for the first time." (Organic Process Research & Development Journal, 2010)
