Further information on the subject (current semester):
Responsible person and department:
Dr. Török Kitti, Department of Applied Biotechnology and Food Science
Lecturer:
Dr. Pécs Miklós, Department of Applied Biotechnology and Food Science
Subject is based on:
Microbiology: (life processes, properties, reproduction and internal regulation of microorganisms)
Microbial genetics (genetic control, classical and modern genetic methods, auxotrophic mutants, operon model: induction, repression, derepressed mutants, feed-back inhibition, antimetabolite resistant mutants, catabolite repression, phages, plasmids, shuttle vectors, expression cassettes, isolation markers)
Bioengineering: unit operations and processes I: upstream processes of fermentation (microbial propagation, product formation)
Bioseparations (downstream processes of fermentation)
Requisities:
BMEVEMKA404 or equivalent
Aim of the subject:
To deepen the students knowledge on the field of industrial biotechnology. The subject gives an overview of the products and technologies of classical and modern biotechnology from the theoretical basis to the industrial practice. As a technological course it integrates the knowledge studied in microbiology, genetics and unit operations. Overview of products of biochemical engineering, their properties and production from strain development to upstream and downstream processes.
