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.
What are the levels of thymosin α1 and thymosin β4 in the normal state?
Thymosin α1 and thymosin β4 are the first peptides with immunomodulatory activity isolated from thymosin fr. 5. The levels of both vary in different patients and can therefore reflect the health statu
