2. FERMENTATION
DEFINITION
The chemical breakdown of a
substance by bacteria , yeast ,or other
microorganism typically involving
effervescence and giving off of heat
EXAMPLE
Fermentation is used for preservation in
the process that produces lactic acid
as found in yogurt and pickled
cucumbers
3. LARGE SCALE PRODUCTION OF PROTIEN
FROM RECOMBINANT MICROORGANISM
The production of commercial products that are
synthesized by genetically engineered
microorganism require the partnership of two kinds
of experts;
MOLECULAR BIOLOGIST;
Responsible for isolating characterizing,modifying
and creating effectively expressed genes in
microorganism that can be used or industrial
production
BIOCHEMICAL ENGINEERS;
Ensure that genetically engineered form of a
microorganism can be grown in large quantities
undr conditions that give optimal product yeilds
6. BIOREACTORS
Bioreactors is a vessel in which a
chemical process is carried out which
involves biochemically active
substances derived from such
organism
Microorganism for industrial
applications are grown in;
CULTURE TUBES
SHAKE FLASKS
