Opis

At present, there is growing interest in high pressure bioscience and biotechnology. The activities are nearly equally distributed between fundamental research and applications. With original work on marine and terrestrial microbiology, biochemistry, molecular biology, deep-sea diving, food science and other industrial applications, this book covers the whole range of current high pressure bioscience. Advances in High Pressure Bioscience and Biotechnology will be welcomed by all industrial and academic researchers who are working in this field.

At present, there is a growing interest in high pressure bioscience and

biotechnology. The activities are nearly equally distributed between

fundamental research and applications. With original work on

biochemistry, biophysics, marine and terrestrial micobiology,

pharmacology, food science and other applications, this book covers the

whole range of current high pressure bioscience. Advances in High

Pressure Bioscience and Biotechnology will be welcomed by all academic

and industrial researchers who are working in this field.

The following topics are covered:

High pressure effects on proteins and macromolecules

High pressure effects on polyelectrolytes, DNA, RNA

High pressure effects on lipids and biomembranes

High pressure and enzymatic reactions

High pressure microbiology

High pressure food science and food technology

High pressure applications in bioscience, pharmacy, and medicine

High pressure techniques
