Inhaltsangabe

In biotechnology and bioengineering, small molecules can be used to increase the efficiency reduce the cost and damage to the environment of certain bioprocesses. This book introduces readers to the important field of chemically promoted biotechnology and bioengineering and presents the theory behind the biotechnology of enzymatic reactions and how they can be chemically enhanced. The book covers chemical modulators for enzymatic reactions, chemically promoted biotechnology in plant cell cultures, chemically promoted biotechnology for plant protection and future prospects for the field. Knowledge gained allows both chemists to make use of biotechnology to solve chemical problems in an environmentally-friendly way, and biologists to make use of chemistry to increase biotechnological efficiency. This book is useful for scientists in a broad range of disciplines, including agricultural chemistry, pesticide science, medicinal chemistry, biochemistry, bio-organic chemistry, cell and molecular biology. Students and researchers in both academia and industry will find it a useful handbook.

1.1 The History and Applications of Biotechnology

The term 'biotechnology' first appeared in Manchester University, England, early in the 20th century. In 1912, C. Weizmann isolated a strain of Clostridium acetobutylicum that converted carbohydrate into butanol, acetone, and ethanol. In 1923, T. Walker commenced undergraduate education in the department of fermentation industries; the name of this department was then changed to industrial biochemistry, similar to 'biotechnology'. K. Ereky, a Hungarian engineer and the founding father of biotechnology, first coined the word "biotechnology" in a book published in Berlin in 1919 called Biotechnologie der Fleisch-, Fett- und Milcherzeugung im landwirtschaftlichen Grossbetriebe (Biotechnology of Meat, Fat and Milk Production in an Agricultural Large-Scale Farm), in which he explained a bioprocess technology that converts raw materials into a more valuable product. He further developed this concept for the 20th century: Biotechnology means solutions to many social and natural crises, such as food and energy shortages.

In fact, biotechnology as a methodology has existed for a long time, although the term "biotechnology" did not exist then. Around 8000 BC yeast was used to make wheat wine by the Chinese, and also around 6000 BC by the Sumerians and Babylonian
