This book provides a comprehensive overview of the basic and advanced metabolic engineering technologies used to generate natural metabolites and industrially important biomolecules. Metabolic engineering has the potential to produce large quantities of valuable biomolecules in a renewable and sustainable manner by extending or modifying biosynthetic pathways in a wide range of organisms. It has been successfully used to produce chemicals, drugs, enzymes, amino acids, antibiotics, biofuels, and industrially important pharmaceuticals. The book comprehensively reviews the various metabolites detection, extraction and biosensors and the metabolic engineering of microbial strains for the production of industrially useful enzymes, proteins, organic acids, vitamins and antibiotics, therapeutics, chemicals, and biofuels. It also discusses various genetic engineering and synthetic biology tools for metabolic engineering. In closing, the book discusses ethical, patenting and regulatory issues in the metabolic engineering of microbes. This book is a valuable source not only for beginners in metabolic engineering, but also students, researchers, biotechnology and metabolic engineering based company.
This book offers a first-of-its-kind, standalone review of coalbed methane (CBM) in India, covering all the major technical and policy aspects. As an authoritative text on CBM in India, it addresses the essential geological, engineering and policy issues. The Coalbed Methane industry is a rapidly developing sector in Indian energy supply. The book presents the characteristics of coal beds in India's Damodar and Son river valleys, which influence the commercial viability of CBM in the regions, as well as a study of the gas contents of the country's major coalfields. The book begins with a brief review of methane emissions from Indian coal mines and the current coalbed methane situation in the country. Its unique features include a coalfield-by-coalfield technical assessment of CBM throughout India. Policy matters are addressed, including the National Exploration Licencing Policy (NELP) of the Indian Government Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, which is vital to an overall understanding of CBM development in the country. The scope and depth of its book's coverage will benefit students, practising engineers, researchers and policy-makers.

India faces formidable challenges in meeting its energy needs and providing adequate and varied energy of desired quality to users in a sustainable manner and at reasonable costs. With a population in excess of one billion, India needs economic growth for human development, which in turn requires access to clean, convenient and reliable energy for all. The keys to energy security are assurance of supply and diversity of sources. As India seeks to secure her energy security needs, it is probable that she will seek to explore new options. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have led to spiraling oil prices which have adversely affected the Indian economy. The major impediments to India's ability to secure her energy are inadequate domestic energy capacity, the conflicting interests with China and India's geographic location. The Indian government has followed a policy of resource diversification. Overland trans-national energy pipelines are one of the options being explored by India to meet her energy security requirements. Overland trans-national energy pipelines by their very nature incorporate multiple nations (source nations, transit nations and destination nations) and are affected by regional and geo-strategic interests of the nations involved. Thus, they provide an excellent platform for analysis of India's energy and geo-strategic interests and its security. Based on this premise the study shall limit itself to assessing the feasibility of overland trans-national energy pipelines and determining the effects of such pipelines on India's energy security and its national security.
The Present piece of scientific work focused on the detailed study of Moringa oleifera leaves. This includes pharmacognostical standardization covering the botanical and physicochemical parameters along with phytochemical standardization and HPTLC analysis. Motive behind the study is to establish the nutritional and phytochemical value of this folk medicinal plant, so as to increase its socio-economic & medicinal uses in rural as well as in urban part of world. Pharmacognostic study of fresh leaf, powder and anatomical sections were carried out to determine its macroscopical and microscopical characters. Various physicochemical parameters viz. Loss on drying, Ash values, Extractive values, Crude fiber content, Foaming Index and Swelling index, were studied. Phytochemical standardization includes estimation of various secondary metabolites and HPTLC analysis of biomarker kaempferol. The results obtained from the ongoing work reveals the utility of herb as a nutritional supplement and an important medicinal plant for further elaborated study.
The Indian Himalayan Region is divided into North-Eastern and North-Western Himalayan Region that includes 11states out of which 3 states exist in North-Western Region.Uttarakhand is one of the 3 states embraced by North-Western Himalayan Region. U.S.Nagar is one of the promising district for production of potatoes in the state.The study was about the projection of optimum and present potato commodity system. The existing potato system reveals that the farmers has highly diversified cropping pattern while the optimum plan developed reveals that there were ample scopes of increasing farm income through optimal allocation of resources.The per cent increase in net farm family income of a potato producer over existing income situation was more in improved market situation.The recommended policies are strengthened of extension services, market support and input supply system through mobile teams and declaration of price support for the crop by the government.Further, implementation of Mandi Act, organization of farmers cooperatives ans self help groups, etc are other suggestions that might help farm
