"Plants as Factories for Protein Production"
edited by E.E. Hood and J.A. HowardKluwer, September, 2002, 224 pages. $159.00 (Shipping and handling: $8.00 for U.S. delivery, $20.00 elsewhere).
This exciting volume Plants as Factories for Protein Production, edited by Drs. Elizabeth E. Hood and John A. Howard, contains chapters by experts in the field of molecular farming. The information within addresses the leading plant systems for recombinant protein production, as well as the progress being made in leading product categories - human pharmaceuticals, animal health, and industrial enzymes. More importantly, the book includes chapters that address the hot topics of production, containment, regulatory, and legal aspects that are quickly coming to the forefront of the industry. This most timely text is appropriate for graduate students and post-doctoral fellows, as well as being a key text for faculty, pharmaceutical producers, and industrial enzyme users.
