Biotechnology of Terpenoid Production from Microbial Cell Factories is a unique reference to help researchers, scientists and scholars explore available strategies involved in the production of terpenoid-based, value-added compounds from GRAS status (Generally Recognized as Safe by FDA) microbes to address the associated challenges for the industry. The book covers the most up-to-date information about microbial terpenoid production, including culture condition modulation for the improved and high-specificity production of terpenoid and their in-situ extraction. Each class of terpenoid is explained in detail, including their nutritional and pharmaceutical information and their molecular aspects. Provides an in-depth look at both the natural and metabolic engineering aspects of microbial terpenoid production Includes production strategies and existing challenges for each class of terpenoid from microbial sources Presents broad application opportunities of terpenoids such as food additives, pharmaceuticals and fragrances Includes brief chapter summaries and a glossary for each chapter to simplify technical applications
