Biochemical Engineering is one of the pillar industries of the 21st century and is the interdiscipline of biology, chemistry and engineering, being the general term of biochemical engineering and bio-processing engineering as well as being a branch of biotechnology. It is also one of the frontiers of chemical engineering disciplines and is the means for the conversion of biological technology into productivity, industrialization and commercialization. Biochemical Engineering products are products with animals, plants, microorganisms as raw materials and processing through approaches of biochemical engineering, physics and chemistry. It is widely applied to various kinds of fields including medicine, food, feed, basic organic chemicals, organic acids and bio-pesticides.
Physiological function of Cholesterol
Cholesterol is a lipid with a sterol nucleus and is formed from acetyl-CoA . It may be absorbed from food (animal sources only) but is also synthesised in the liver and, to a lesser extent, other tiss
Feb 25,2022 Biochemical EngineeringMechanism of Mannitol
Mannitol is an alcohol produced by the reduction of mannose. It is absorbed unreliably from the GI tract and therefore has to be given by i.v. injection; bolus doses of 0.25–1 g kg–1 are used. Initial
