Features: Microbial Engineering is a national higher agricultural college "15th Five-Year Plan" teaching material organized and compiled by China Agricultural Press to support the discipline construction and teaching of biological majors in China's agricultural and forestry colleges. The book is divided into 17 chapters. The first 10 chapters systematically introduce the basic knowledge of microbial engineering, including an overview of microbial engineering, the sources, selection, and preservation of microbial engineering strains, microbial engineering culture media, microbial engineering sterilization and filtration equipment and technology, microbial metabolism and its regulation, microbial reaction kinetics, microbial engineering bioreactors, microbial engineering fermentation technology, microbial engineering immobilization technology, and microbial engineering downstream technology. This part is intended to serve as the mandatory professional theory of the course. The last 7 chapters introduce the applications of microbial engineering in fields closely related to human survival and development, specifically including the application of microbial engineering in agriculture, the pharmaceutical industry, the food brewing industry, the environmental protection industry, the energy development industry, the resource utilization industry, and the light chemical industry. This part can serve as a choice and reference for relevant professional directions. Each chapter in the book is followed by a summary, discussion questions, and references to facilitate students' review and mastery. This book is oriented towards teaching and is suitable for the teaching process of faculty and students of biological majors in relevant colleges and universities. It also considers references for research, production, and more readers' reading and learning. This book is one of the "National Higher Agricultural College Textbooks," and it is divided into 17 chapters, providing detailed introductions to the overview of microbial engineering, the metabolism and regulation of microorganisms, the culture media of microbial engineering, the reaction kinetics of microbial engineering, and the application of microbial engineering in agriculture, among other content. This book can be used as a teaching material for major colleges and universities and can also be used as a reference book for those engaged in related work.
