Description for Thermophilic Microbes in Environmental and Industrial Biotechnology, 2nd Ed.
Hardcover. This book covers the latest research on thermophilic microbes, which are useful in plant biomass bioconversion, as sources of industrial enzymes, as gene donors for the heterologous expression of thermostable enzymes and in development of advanced biofuels. Editor(s): Satyanarayana, Tulasi; Littlechild, Jenny A.; Kawarabayasi, Yutaka. Num Pages: 974 pages, 60 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PSG; TCB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 241 x 164 x 42. Weight in Grams: 1482.
The existence of life at high temperatures is quiet fascinating. At elevated temperatures, only microorganisms are capable of growth and survival. Many thermophilic microbial genera have been isolated from man-made (washing machines, factory effluents, waste streams and acid mine effluents) and natural (volcanic areas, geothermal areas, terrestrial hot springs, submarine hydrothermal vents, geothermally heated oil reserves and oil wells, sun-heated litter and soils/sediments) thermal habitats throughout the world. Both culture-dependent and culture-independent approaches have been employed for understanding the diversity of microbes in hot environments. Interest in their diversity, ecology, and physiology has increased enormously during the past few decades ... Read more
