This book delves into the biotechnological applications of Quorum
sensing (QS)- a peculiar gene-regulatory process of some
microorganisms. Quorum Sensing allows a large bacterial population
to work together in a coordinated manner to carry out metabolic
activities, which individual bacterium cannot. The different
chapters describe how, associating bioremediation process with
energy generation is an economical proposal, for reducing pollution
and managing biowastes. The book discusses how QS can be exploited
for biotechnological applications in generating bioproducts,
bioenergy, bioremediation, biosensors, health and agricultural
activities. It further highlights how QS is becoming an integral
part of synthetic biology for genetic circuits for producing: (i)
novel products, (ii) biosensors, (iii) bioactive molecules, etc.
The book is divided into different sections for a clear
understanding of the applicability of QS in, the Environment,
Energy, Agriculture and Health sectors.
