Biocatalysts for Fine Chemicals Synthesis

Biocatalysts for Fine Chemicals Synthesis Edited by S. M. Roberts University of Liverpool, UK Associate Editors Guy Casey, University of Exeter, UK May-Britt Nielsen, University of Liverpool, UK Sarah Phythian, Christine Todd, Karen Wiggins, University of Exeter, UK From 1992-1997 Preparative Biotransformations was published in loose-leaf format. During this time detailed protocols on the use and handling of cells and enzymes in organic synthesis were collected. Biocatalysts for Fine Chemicals Synthesis* A collection of procedures originally published in the looseleaf publication, Preparative Biotransformations* Includes a state-of-the-art review by Professor S. M. Roberts not previously published* Contains fully tested and validated protocols* Step-by-step instructions for the expert and the inexperienced chemistReplacing the very successful loose-leaf product, this invaluable set of protocols covers those areas where cells and enzymes have been proven to be useful catalysts. This volume is a key reference source for everybody starting in this area of synthesis.
