Book Description

This is an introductory text intended to give the non-specialist a comprehensive insight into the science of biotransformations. The book traces the history of biotransformations, clearly spells out the pros and cons of conducting enzyme-mediated versus whole-cell bioconversions, and gives a variety of examples wherein the bio-reaction is a key element in a reaction sequence leading from cheap starting materials to valuable end products.

Editorial Reviews

Review

“The authors …have succeeded in providing a very attractive account which will encourage researchers and graduate students …’ C. J. K. Batty, Mathematical Reviews

‘Because of its clear and efficient presentation of material from many directions of research, Hochschild cohomology of von Neumann algebras is recommended reading even for operator algebraists with only a casual interest in the cohomological side of their subject.’ William L. Paschke, The Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society

‘… a comprehensive and readable introduction to the field.’ Monatshefte für Mathematik

Book Description

This book gives an introduction to biotransformations, the practice of harnessing biological catalysts for the preparation of useful chemicals.

From the Back Cover

The continuous Hochschild cohomology of dual normal modules over a von Neumann algebra is the subject of this book. The necessary technical results are developed assuming a familiarity with basic C*-algebra and von Neumann algebra theory, including the decomposition into two types, but no prior knowledge of cohomology theory is required and the theory of completely bounded and multilinear operators is given fully. Central to this book are those cases when the continuous Hochschild cohomology H(superscript n)(M, M) of the von Neumann algebra M over itself is zero. The material in this book lies in the area common to Banach algebras, operator algebras and homological algebra, and will be of interest to researchers from these fields.
