Sommario/riassunto

The current book gives an excellent insight into downstream processing technology and explains how to establish a successful strategy for an efficient recovery, isolation and purification of biosynthetic products. In addition to the overview of purification steps and unit operations, the authors provide practical information on capital and operating costs related to downstream processing.
