biokatalyysissa
Biokatalyysissa refers to the use of biological catalysts, such as enzymes or whole cells, to accelerate chemical reactions. The term is derived from the Finnish words for “bio” (living) and “katalyysi” (catalysis). It encompasses processes in which living organisms or their components transform substrates into desired products under mild conditions, often with high selectivity and specificity compared to conventional chemical catalysts.
The concept of biokatalysis has been known for centuries, but the modern field emerged in the 20th
Key applications of biokatalyysissa include the pharmaceutical industry, where enzymes are used to produce chiral drug
Industrial adoption requires ensuring enzyme stability, scalability, and cost-effectiveness, leading to the integration of immobilized enzymes,
