In recent years, a wide range of microbial metabolites have been
used for industrial production world wide for human welfare.
Pullulan is one of the important microbial metabolite produced by
Aureobasidium pullulans, a polymorphic fungus, all over the world.
Pullulan is a linear homopolymer composed of maltotriose subunits
interconnected with glycosidic linkages. This polymer is being
exploited in food, cosmetic, medical and pharmaceutical industries
including manufacture of biodegradable plastics. This work aims at
improvement of Aureobasidium pullulans strain through mutation as
well as immobilization for increased production of pullulan in
fermentation system. The book will shed some light on current
industrial aspects of microbiology especially fermentation
technology and will be of great use to students as well as all
those interested in the subject.
