Description
To retain their usefulness, cultures that manufacture economically valuable products must be uncontaminated, viable, and genetically stable. Maintaining Cultures for Biotechnology and Industry gives practical advice necessary to preserve and maintain cells
and microorganisms important to the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries in ways that ensure they will continue to be able to
synthesize those valuable metabolites. This book covers not just those strains currently being used but also those yet to be discovered
and engineered.
This text is essential for anyone working with cultures who wants to avoid the frustration of losing strains and needs
to be able to devise and evaluate new strategies for preservation.
