Industrial Microbiology is branch of microbiology; it explores the basics of fermentation process. This provides the structure of fermenter, its types and fermentation process. The study of microorganisms involved in fermentation further extends the understanding of primary screening and secondary screening. It also focused on the upstream and downstream processes.
This book has been written in a student-friendly manner to meet the requirements of the revised curriculum. Each unit is structured systematically with clear explanations, illustrative examples, diagrams and end-of-unit exercises to reinforce learning outcomes.
