Catalysis and Chemical Engineering

Biocatalysis and Biotransformation

It consist of two types actual and potential catalysis which are part of Biocatalysis and Biotransformation that includes  whole cells or isolated components therefore natural and modified enzymes and catalytic antibodies for the synthesis of interconversion or degradation of chemical species.  It is the chemical modification that is occurred by the influence of an organism or by the presence of enzymes in the biological system which is known as Biotransformation. The process of transformation of chemicals that are used in biological catalysts like enzymes, antibodies, cell constituents are called as Biocatalysis.The Enzymatic reactions and biotransformations  are catalyzed by fungal enzymes are  used in industry, agriculture, food technology, and medicine.
