OBJECTIVES:
 To make the students aware of the overall industrial bioprocess so as to help them to manipulate the
process to the requirement of the industrial needs.
 The course helps the students to gain knowledge about bulk production of commercially important
modern bioproducts, industrial Enzymes, products of plant and animal cell cultures

UNIT I INTRODUCTION TO INDUSTRIAL BIOPROCESS 10
Introduction, industrial products from plant, animals and micros, bioprocess and fermentation
technology.Modern Biotechnology- Fermentor and its types, processes, products. Basic concepts of Upstream
and Downstream processing in Bioprocess, outline of genetic engineering and modern product
development,process flow sheeting – block diagrams.

UNIT II PRODUCTION OF PRIMARY METABOLITES 8
Primary Metabolites- Production of commercially important primary metabolites like organic acids, amino
acids and alcohols.

UNIT III PRODUCTION OF SECONDARY METABOLITES 8
Secondary Metabolites- Production processes for various classes of secondary metabolites: Antibiotics,
Vitamins and Steroids.

UNIT IV PRODUCTION OF ENZYMES AND OTHER BIOPRODUCTS 11
Production of Industrial Enzymes, Biopesticides, Biofertilizers, Biopreservatives, Biopolymers. Cheese, Beer,
SCP & Mushroom culture, Bioremediation, fermented foods.

UNIT V PRODUCTION MODERN BIOTECHNOLOGY PRODUCTS 8
Principal of recombinant technology, production of recombinant proteins having therapeutic and diagnostic
applications, vaccines. Bioprocess strategies in Plant Cell and Animal Cell culture.
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
COURSE OUTCOMES:
Upon completion of the above course, students will be able to:
 Carryout the steps involved in the production of bioproducts and methods to improve modern
biotechnology.
 Identify commercially important primary metabolites and its production.
 Knowledge on production and recovery of antibiotics.
 Production of commercially important enzyme and its use.
 Identify the recombinant proteins used for therapeutic and diagnostic application.
