ERT 317Biochemical Engineering Dr. Ku Syahidah(C) Dr. SalehaShamsudin
Course synopsis: This course focuses on the importance of bioprocess engineering elements such as enzyme technology, fermentation and bioconversion technology. Mathematical representations of enzymatic reaction as well as microbial systems are featured among lecture topics especially on kinetics study.
Learning Outcomes: • At the end of the course, students are expected to be: • Ability to develop enzyme reactions based on its kinetics study and applied catalysis. • Ability to evaluate microbial system based on its metabolic pathways and kinetics study in batch and continuous cultures. • Ability to propose bioconversion technologies of microbial, plant and animal cell culture for the production of value-added product.
List of experiments: Lab 1: To analyze the effect of enzyme and substrate concentration on enzyme kinetics study Lab 2: To analyze the effect of immobilization method on the retention of enzymatic activity Lab 3: To analyze the effect of environmental conditions on growth kinetics of S. cerevisae in batch process Lab 4: To develop growth curve and effect of immobilization on plant cell culture Lab 5: To organize an open-ended experiment based on bioconversion technology approaches
