Industrial Enzyme Applications (eBook)

Andreas Vogel is Head of R&D Enzyme Development at c-LEcta in Leipzig, Germany. After his Ph.D. degree he worked at the EMBL outstation in Hamburg, where he focused on structure-function relationships of enzymes. He moved to the Max-Planck-Institute for Coal Research with Prof. M. T. Reetz. In 2006 he started to work in the c-LEcta company where he successfully developed a series of enzymes for various industrial applications. Oliver May is currently Senior Science Fellow and responsible for DSM´s global Biochemistry and Microbiology competence field. He has more than 15 years experience in industrial enzymes from his work at Evonik Industries and DSM and published more than 30 enzyme related scientific publications.
