Delve Publishing Metabolic Engineering: New Developments and Applications

This book reviews the current metabolic engineering tools and technologies from a practical point of view, and guides researchers as they overcome challenges at various stages of organism and bioprocess development. This book provides data-based scientific knowledge and state-of-art information on functional genomics and metabolic engineering intended to researchers and advanced students in biology and engineering to methods of optimizing biochemical systems of biotechnological relevance. About the Author Dr Prerna Pandey, a biotechnologist with several years of wet lab research experience, worked at International Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, New Delhi. Her field of research in PhD included isolation and molecular characterization of geminiviruses, genome sequencing, gene annotation, and gene silencing using the RNA interference technology. She has also worked at Transasia Biomedicals and Advance Enzyme Technologies as a scientist. Prerna has published papers in peer-reviewed journals, and has submitted a number of annotated Geminiviral genome sequences in the GenBank, including two novel ones. She has also completed her editing and proof-reading courses from Society for the promotion of Editors and Proof-readers, UK and now works as a freelance scientific editor and writer. When Prerna is not busy with her assignments, she loves to explore historical places.
