Enzyme Biotechnology

    Enzymes are molecular tools required to carry out all the biochemical reactions occurring in living organisms. Owing to their unique properties and biological functions, enzymes hold an immense potential for diverse industrial applications. Consequently, the production of both traditional and novel enzymes has become one or the most dynamic areas in biotechnology. Enzymes are widely used across various industries, including pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, animal feed, textiles, paper, energy and waste management. The scope of enzyme applications is expected to expand in coming years, driven by advances in biological sciences, chemistry and computational technologies that will enable to the discovery of enzymes with unprecedented properties. Moreover, the inherently "green" nature of enzymes makes them an ideal sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional chemical processes..
