Enzymology for Biotechnologists provides a comprehensive introduction to enzymology with a strong focus on its applications in biotechnology. Chapters cover the fundamental principles of enzyme structure, function, kinetics, and assays, and extends into advanced topics such as enzyme production, immobilization, reactor design, process intensification, and the use of enzymes in low-water and green solvent systems. Special attention is given to industrial applications, grey and white biotechnology, and the integration of processes that highlight sustainability and innovation. The book presents enzymology from a perspective of biotechnology, and focuses on scale-up, process design, and industrial applications. This targeted approach makes sure that BTech, MTech, MSc, and PhD students, as well as researchers and professionals, gain not only a solid understanding of enzyme science but also its translation into real-world biotechnological processes.

Presents enzymology from a perspective of biotechnology, and focus on scale-up, process design, and industrial applications

Professor Timir Tripathi is a Professor of Molecular Biology, School of Life Sciences, North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong, India. Earlier, he served as the Regional Director of Indira Gandhi National Open University. His previous role was Senior Assistant Professor and Principal Investigator at the Department of Biochemistry, NEHU, Shillong. He holds a Ph.D. from Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. His primary research focus is studying the conformational dynamics, interaction, and stabilization of the complexes formed by intrinsically disordered neuropathological protein aggregates, their properties of liquid-liquid phase separation, interaction, and roles in nucleocytoplasmic transport in neurodegenerative diseases. Professor Tripathi is an Associate Fellow of the Indian National Science Academy, New Delhi, and an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences, India, the Royal Society of Chemistry, and the Royal Society of Biology, UK Dr. Munishwar Nath Gupta earned his PhD from Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru, and completed post-doctoral positions at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (USA), University of Minnesota (USA), Lund University (Sweden), and University of Technology of Compiegne (France). He has taught chemistry, biochemistry, and biotechnology at Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, between 1975-2016. He was awarded the National Science Talent fellowship (India) and Fellowships of National Academy of Sciences and Indian National Science Academy. He has edited three books on thermostability of enzymes, non-aqueous enzymology and affinity-based separation methods (published by Springer/Birkhauser). He was an Associate Editor of Biocatalysis and Biotransformation (Taylor and Francis) and founding and former editor-in-chief of Sustainable Chemical Processes (Springer). He’s served on editorial boards of several national and international journals and acted as a consultant to Novozyme (Denmark), Dabur (India), and other international companies. His research interests include applied biocatalysis and interfaces of biochemistry with nanotechnology.
