Biotransformations have become an important tool in all areas of industry, where high yielding chemo-, regio-, and enantioselective reactions often are critical. Here the following fundamental aspects are in the focus:
• Screening and development of new catalysts considering the specific requirements of a distinct process.
• Efficiency of production systems considering the qualitative and quantitative mass and energy fluxes.
• Reaction engineering based optimisation of bioprocesses considering side reactions and scale-up.
• Development and implementation of new and efficient processes of downstream processing.
Working fields range from microbial screening, enzyme discovery and optimisation of methods via bio-chemo-catalysis, whole cell biotransformations, the use of enzyme cascades to downstream processing methods and economic as well as environmental aspects. Tailor-designed biocatalysts implemented in innovative and optimized processes for industrial purposes can lead to fine chemicals and valuable pharmaceutical intermediates. In order to make potential of novel and/or engineered enzymes and techniques for biotransformation processes, young scientists with a molecular understanding in the mentioned interdisciplinary fields have to be educated and brought together. The latter is the main and ambitious goal of the Summer School for Biotransformations in 2017.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
