| AIMS
& OBJECTS |
| The
demand for new and improved commercial biological
products and processes, employing living
cells or their cellular components is growing
and may be met through bioprocessing. It
involves the production of various biotechnological
products and upscaling with highly desirable
characteristics and quality. The Departmental
activities are centered upon upstream and
downstream processing, process monitoring
and optimization of biological production
levels. Various products of microbial growth
and biotransformation are currently handled
at laboratory and commercial pilot fermenter
levels for production and scale up studies.
Search for novel antimicrobial (antibacterial/anti-fungal)
metabolites through newly isolated microorganisms
is the priority area of the Departmental
research. Microbial biotransformations,
bio-catalytic activity optimizations with
different bioreactors, cell immobilization
are other important biotechnological studies
currently undergoing in the Department. |

| Current
Areas of Research |
| Antibacterial
compounds through microbial source. Novel
antifungal compounds from active microorganisms.
Biotransformations.
Studies on enzymes such as ß-galactosidase,
protease, lipase etc.
Bioreactors and biocatalysts processing. |
