Abstract:
:Biotransformations have gained extensive importance in practical use as a support for chemical synthesis or in the conversion of natural products. Biotransformations may present an enlargement, a sequential degradation or a specific modification of synthetic or natural compounds. The tools for biotransformations are principally mammalian, plant or microbial cells and their cell-free enzymes. In technical practice the biocatalysts are so far limited to the use of microorganisms and some cell-free enzymes of low cost. Although numerous microbial or enzymatical reactions were already developed for industrial processes, the capacities of biotransformations offer a broad field of inexhaustible possibilities for the future.
