Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering

Bioprocess Engineering combines biotechnology and engineering for the producing of materials from renewable feed stocks. This field includes basic bio-molecular analysis on proteins, enzymes and microbes, still as work on biosensors, bio-separations and bioreactors. Applications embody food process and preservation; pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and sweetener production; air and waste matter treatment; bio-based structural motifs for supramolecular architectures; microfluidics for bioreactors and DNA chips; bioenergy; and applications in the pulp and paper industry. There square measure natural links to medicine applications, like drug metabolism, tissue engineering and bio-based therapeutic treatments.
