Overview
Describes the state-of-the-art techniques and methods involved in the design, operation, preparation and containment of bioreactor systems, taking into account the interrelated effects of variables associated with both upstream and downstream stages of the design process. The importance of the initial steps in the development of a bioprocess, such as strain and media selection, that have an overwhelming influence on all further operations, is emphasized.;This work is intended for biochemical, chemical and bioprocess engineers; biotechnologists; industrial biochemists; micro- and molecular biologists; food scientists; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.

Booknews
A comprehensive reference on bioreactor system design, where the influence of variables associated with upstream and downstream stages is taken into account, considering the bioreactor as part of the system as a whole. Particular consideration is given to the very first steps in the development of a bioprocess, such as strain and media selection, which can have an overwhelming influence on all further operations. It includes both the large variety of cell systems currently in use and those that show potential for application in the near future as well as their scale-up and operation modes and the bioreactor support systems, including sterilization and containment and system supplies.
