Features: This book takes the regulation of industrial fermentation processes as its main thread, applying knowledge of microbial physiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology to explain metabolic regulation and fermentation patterns. It provides in-depth discussions on microbial growth, basic metabolism, metabolic regulation, and secondary metabolite biosynthesis, while also offering a comprehensive introduction to fermentation process control and optimization, as well as parameter detection and online monitoring. In terms of content, it strives to achieve a balance between theory and practice, covering systematic foundational theories while reflecting the latest advancements in research and industrial applications. The book comprehensively collects and organizes the views and experiences of most scholars and experts in metabolic regulation and fermentation control from around the world, presenting relatively novel material that reflects the latest level of fermentation regulation studies. After revision, the following adjustments have been made:
- Key concepts in all chapters are highlighted in italics.
- All chapters have been streamlined.
- Relevant review questions are included in all chapters.
- Since Chapters 1 and 2 are primarily foundational theories, the manuscript content has been mainly condensed.
- Chapters 3, 4, and 5 have undergone targeted content condensation, supplemented with a large number of references from 2001–2004.
- Chapter 6 has been proofread by relevant automation professionals to enhance professionalism and readability.
This book is suitable as a professional textbook for fermentation regulation studies, bioprocess engineering, industrial microbiology, industrial biochemistry, fermentation engineering, microbial pharmaceuticals, and antibiotic technology. It can also serve as a reference for students in pharmaceutical, light industry, agriculture, forestry, and teacher training programs. Additionally, it is a valuable resource for researchers and production personnel working in biotechnology, biochemical engineering, and industrial fermentation for further study and reference.
