Carrier-Bound Immobilized Enzymes: Principles, Application and Design

By Longbing Cao

Carrier-bound Immobilized Enzymes

The first systematic overview of this key technique since the early 1990s, this authoritative reference is the only handbook available to include all recent developments. The author draws on his wide-ranging experience in both academia and industry to systematically cover all types of enzyme immobilization methods, including such novel techniques as site-specific immobilization, imprinting and immobilization in organic solvents.
