Reviews
“The author successfully addresses the main bottleneck to protein production using Pseudomonas expression system. This book chapter then highlights several expression platforms that have been developed for recombinant protein production. Examples and references given might provide some insight and guideline to the scientific community to use Pseudomonas as an effective production system.” – Dr. Iffah Izzati Zakaria, Natural Product and Drug Discovery Centre, Malaysian Institute of Pharmaceuticals and Nutraceuticals, Ministry of Science,Technology and Innovation, Gelugor, Malaysia
“Overall this chapter provide an insight of the latest trend in Pseudomonas aeruginosa research study.” – Dr. Alene Tawang, Sultan Idris Education University, Malaysia
Audience
Graduate students, young field microbiologists and research scientists in academia, research institutes and industry.
