Microbial Production
Businesses / Posted 4 days ago by Marcia Brady / 4 views / New
An emerging alternative solution is to express biosynthetic genes from the original producers in microbial hosts, notably bacteria and fungi. Prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbial cells, in combination with the advancement of recombinant DNA techniques, have been responsible for an explosion of bioproducts. Genetic engineered microbes can produce appreciable amounts of scarce products, thereby facilitating the synthesis of the target novel compound and potent derivatives.
Through fermentation, microorganisms growing on inexpensive carbon sources can produce valuable products such as amino acids, nucleotides, organic acids, and vitamins which can be added to food to enhance its flavor or increase its nutritive values. The contribution of microorganisms will go well beyond the food industry with the renewed interest in solvent fermentations. Microbial Production
