The "Biopolymers" series at its best!
The very best of biotechnology of Alexander Steinbüchel's successful "Biopolymers" series has been extracted and updated for "Biotechnology of Biopolymers". The focus of these two volumes is on the biotechnological systems and processes being developed for a cost effective production, isolation and modification of biopolymers. Furthermore it covers the fundamentals of their chemical and physical properties, their occurence, metabolism, biosynthesis and biodegradation as well as their industrial applications as renewable ressources, novel materials and technical applications.

Autoren-Porträt
Since 1994 Alexander Steinbüchel has been Full Professor of Microbiology and Director of the Institute for Microbiology at the University of Münster. He completed his doctoral studies at the University of Göttingen in 1983. In 1985 he spent one year at the Rockefeller University New York and in 1992 he received the Philip Morris Research Award. Alexander Steinbüchel has over 250 publications to his name and has organized several symposia focusing on biopolymers. He is Editor-in-Chief of the journal Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology and member on the editorial boards of Microbiology, FEMS Microbiology, Macromolecular Bioscience, Biomacromolecules and Journal of Environmental Polymer Degradation. Yoshiharu Doi is Professor at the Department of Innovative and Engineered Materials, Tokyo Institute of Technology and Director of Polymer Chemistry Laboratory, RIKEN Institute, Japan. In 1975 he received his PhD in chemical engineering from the Tokyo Institute of Technology. From 1970 to 1983 he studied the stereospecific polymerization of alpha-olefins with Ziegler-type catalysts. He also discovered the first example of a living coordination polymerization of propene. Since 1984 he has been studying biosynthesis and material properties of biodegradable polyesters and biobased polymers. His group published 400 original research papers, 180 reviews and 35 book chapters. He is an editorial board member of five international journals and has organized five international conferences.
