"Fermentation Processes" ed. by Angela Faustino Jozala

The present book reflects that wide value of fermentation in related areas. The book holds chapters over diverse areas of fermentation research.

Fermentation is a theme widely useful for food, feed and biofuel production. Indeed each of these areas, food industry, animal nutrition and energy production, has considerable presence in the global market. Fermentation process also has relevant applications on medical and pharmaceutical areas, such as antibiotics production.
