Technical Biochemistry: The Biochemistry and Industrial Use of Natural Products
Explore the fascinating intersection of biochemistry and industrial applications with the insightful Technical Biochemistry: The Biochemistry and Industrial Use of Natural Products, now available at Books Hub PK. This essential textbook is a must-have for students and professionals in biochemistry, biotechnology, industrial chemistry, food science, and pharmaceutical sciences who want to understand how natural products are transformed into valuable industrial and commercial goods.
Technical Biochemistry provides a clear, practical overview of the biochemical pathways and techniques involved in sourcing, extracting, modifying, and applying natural products for various industrial purposes. From plants and microorganisms to marine resources and renewable bioresources, this book explains how biochemical principles are harnessed to produce pharmaceuticals, food additives, flavors, fragrances, nutraceuticals, biofuels, and more.
The text covers the structure and function of key classes of natural products — including alkaloids, terpenoids, flavonoids, essential oils, antibiotics, polysaccharides, proteins, and enzymes — and explains how these compounds are isolated, purified, and modified for commercial use.
Special emphasis is placed on modern industrial biochemistry techniques such as fermentation technology, enzyme technology, biocatalysis, bioprocessing, and biorefinery methods. Readers will also gain insight into sustainable production practices, quality control, regulatory frameworks, and the environmental impact of industrial-scale biochemical processes.
Richly illustrated with diagrams, flowcharts, and real-world examples, Technical Biochemistry bridges the gap between fundamental biochemistry and practical industrial applications. Each chapter includes key concepts, practical examples, and review questions to help students test their understanding and apply their knowledge to real industrial scenarios.
Whether you are studying industrial biochemistry, food science, biotechnology, or working in quality control or production in bio-based industries, this book is a valuable guide to the practical uses of biochemistry in today’s industrial landscape.
