(USED-LIKE NEW) Bioprocess Engineering: Basic Concepts  (Paperback, Michael L. Shuler, Fikret Kargi)

Book is expected to have few Pen/Pencil markings, other than that it is a NEW BOOK only. ------About the book This concise yet comprehensive text introduces the essential concepts of bioprocessing—internal structure and functions of different types of microorganisms, major metabolic pathways, enzymes, microbial genetics, kinetics and stoichiometry of growth and product information—to traditional chemical engineers and those in related disciplines. It explores the engineering principles necessary for bioprocess synthesis and design, and illustrates the application of these principles to modern biotechnology for production of pharmaceuticals and biologics, solution of environmental problems, production of commodities, and medical applications. Features: • NEW - Concepts of validation and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) are introduced. • NEW - Updated coverage of concepts. • NEW - Material on functional genomics and cellular engineering. • NEW - Expanded discussion of modeling approach. • NEW - Expanded coverage of chromatography. • NEW - Expanded sections on metabolic engineering, animal cell culture, and protein processing.
