Preface Cellulases, especially of microbial origin, have applications in various industries including pulp and paper, textile, laundry, food and feed industry, brewing, and agriculture. Cellulases are becoming increasingly important as key enzymes for biomass deconstruction within biorefineries, for the production of fuels and chemicals. Cellulases are thereby of utmost importance in the transition of the society into a more sustainable, biobased economy. Research in discovery, improvement, and applications of novel cellulases is growing rapidly, not only at the university level but also in industry. The aim of this book is to become the definite lab protocol source in this important area. The target audience is biochem
