Preface

Microbial biotechnology is an interdisciplinary field, and successful development in this field requires major contributions in a broad range of disciplines encompassing specialties as diverse as biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, taxonomy, pathogenic bacteriology, pharmaceutical microbiology, food and industrial microbiology, and ecology. The book Microbial Biotechnology: Application in Food and Pharmacology – Volume 2 is a collection of articles highlighting the interdisciplinary scope and recent developments of microbial biotechnology in the areas of food and pharmacology. The book envisages the recent ideas of novel findings in microbiology and provides insights into the various interdisciplinary research avenues. The book contains a total of 24 chapters and is divided into two major sections: (a) application of microbial technology in food and (b) application of microbial technology in pharmacology. These sections cover the recent developments in the applications of microorganism in various fields like food and pharmacology
