Microbial Enzyme Reactions: Proceedings of the Conference of Project IV, Microbial Enzyme Reactions of the US/USSR Joint Working Group on the Production of Substances by Microbiological Means (5th) Held at Jurmala (Riga) Latvia, USSR on September 30-October 5, 1979

摘要

Seventeen Soviet and fourteen U.S. papers review progress in the area of microbial enzyme reactions. Presentations cover broad areas including enzyme production; Co-factor immobilization, industrial, medical and analytical application of enzymes; and new concepts in biochemical fuel cells and other enzyme-related programs. Specific papers deal with, among many other topics, the thermal stability of enzymes; amino acid synthesis of microbia cells; fluorometric and electrochemical analysis of enzyme reactions; immobilization of medicinal enzymes on polymeric matrices; improved hydrogen photosynthetic bacteria and green algae; sugar recovery and fermentation from wood hemicellulose; uses of immobilized lactase in the dairy industry; and biomass production and utilization research supported by the National Science Foundation. Discussions are amplified by diagrams, mathematical derivations, graphs, illustrations and references.
