Description - NanoArmored Enzymes for High Temperature Biocatalysis by Challa Vijaya Kumar

NanoArmored Enzymes for High Temperature Biocatalysis provides insight on the central theme of entropy minimization for the stabilization of enzymes using linear synthetic polymers. The book describes methods for the conversion of ordinary enzymes into those that can withstand organic solvents, extreme pHs and higher temperatures. Many books written about enzyme stabilization employ a variety of hit-or-miss approaches, but rational approaches based on molecular engineering were never explored. This book addresses missing links in the field of enzyme catalysis at high temperature by exploiting the polymer encapsulation of enzymes based on a solid foundation of physical chemistry principles.
