Marine Microbiome and Microbial Bioprospecting

Marine Microbiome and Microbial Bioprospecting, 1st Edition, examines the biological diversity of microorganisms across marine ecosystems and evaluates their bioprospecting potential for industrial bioproduct applications. Authored by Manikkam Radhakrishnan, Parli Venkateswaran Bhaskar, Abirami Baskaran, and Kaari Manigundan, this 874-page volume published by Academic Press details methods for evaluating marine microbial communities.

The book details ex situ conservation of marine microbes while presenting contemporary tools and techniques for investigating marine microbial diversity and taxonomy. It explores deep sea and extreme marine ecosystems alongside microbial behavior in distinct aquatic environments.

Specific focus is given to industrial enzymes and nanoparticle synthesis derived from marine species. The text provides guidance for researchers in marine microbiology, environmental microbiology researchers, and industry professionals in biotechnology.
