Abstract:
Industrial biotechnology promises to make a significant contribution in enabling the sustainable development, and need the solid support from its basic discipline. As the basis of industrial biotechnology, industrial biology is to study the basic laws and mechanisms of biological behavior in industrial environment and to solve the key scientific problems for understanding, designing and constructing the organisms adapted to the application of industrial environment. In order to comprehend the status of industrial biology, we published this special issue to review the progress and trends of industrial biology from the three aspects of industrial protein science, cell science and fermentation science, respectively, for laying the foundation for the development of industrial biotechnology.
