Full Description
Yarrowia Lipolytica Yeast: From Metabolic Engineering to Biotechnological Applications gathers all the information about the genetics, uses, extraction, purification, and applications of this non-conventional yeast, not just focusing on the genetics and metabolic engineering, nor on its biotechnological applications. Chapters cover the genetic modifications and techniques used to genetically modify Y. Lipolytica, fermentation conditions, various media used in biotechnological applications, and all value-added compounds that can be produced. Edited by the most renowned researchers of this yeast, this book is of great interest to industries t working on biofuel production or searching for environmentally-friendly, natural alternatives for their chemically produced value-added compounds.
