Topics include: biosynthesis of biologically based products: properties of biologically active materials including enzymes, polynucleotides and polypeptides; enzyme reaction kinetics; cell and tissue growth and production kinetics; cell and tissue culture engineering; diffusion and reaction involved immobilized cells and enzymes; bioprocess instrumentation. The course project will require the design of a biological reactor or downstream unit operation, or the specification of instrumentation for a particular bioprocess.
