• Resumen

  • Bioconversions using immobilized enzymes or immobilized cells are widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Redesign of enzymes and adoption of enzyme mimics will greatly enhance such catalytic processes, so too will the introduction of novel pathways into cells by recombinant DNA techniques. The production of the required chiral forms of biochemicals can therefore be confidently predicted.
