In the second edition of this bestselling textbook, new materials have been added, including a
new chapter on real time polymerase chain reaction (RTPCR) and a chapter on fungal solid state cultivation.
There already exist a number of excellent general textbooks on microbiology and biotechnology that deal
with the basic principles of microbial biotechnology. To complement them, this book focuses on the various
applications of microbial-biotechnological principles. A teaching-based format is adopted, whereby working
problems, as well as answers to frequently asked questions, supplement the main text. The book also includes
real life examples of how the application of microbial-biotechnological principles has achieved breakthroughs
in both research and industrial production.
Although written for polytechnic students and undergraduates, the book contains sufficient information to
be used as a reference for postgraduate students and lecturers. It may also serve as a resource book for
corporate planners, managers and applied research personnel.
Of interst to undergraduates and teachers in tertiary institutions. Can also be used as a reference book
for industry (corporate planners, managers and applied research personnel).
