Production, Purification, and Application of Microbial Enzymes

The present human era aspires to change from chemical domination to biological domination. Enzymes are the biocatalysts required by all living organisms for syntheses as well as breakdown reactions. Enzymes are dynamic molecules and many harmful chemical reactions have been replaced by eco-friendly biological processes due to these biocatalysts. Enzyme technology is evolving rapidly. Enzymes, being highly specific in nature, have the capacity to revolutionize the whole industrial sector. Industrial enzyme production technology has attained a huge success in recent years due to major advancements in bioprocess technology. Enzymes with desired properties and improved functionality could be developed with the advent of genetic engineering as well as protein engineering. This chapter deals with industrial enzyme production, purification, formulation, commercial application, and provides a short account of the market position of enzymes globally. Novel enzymes as well as novel applications are continuing to emerge providing new opportunities for enzyme technology to flourish.
