Pharmaceutical Science & Technology
Natural Products Chemistry: Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Phytochemistry focuses on the development of biochemical, biomedical and their applications. It highlights the importance of accomplishing an integration of engineering with biology and medicine to understand and manage the scientific, industrial, and clinical aspects. It also explains both the basic science and the applications of biotechnology-derived pharmaceuticals, with special emphasis on their clinical use. CONTENTS: About the Authors / Editors: Editors: Tatiana G. Volova, DSc Professor and Head, Department of Biotechnology, Siberian Federal University, Krasnoyarsk, Russia Tatiana G. Volova, DSc, is Professor and Head, Department of Biotechnology at Siberian Federal University, Krasnoyarsk, Russia. She is the creator and head of the Laboratory of Chemoautotrophic Biosynthesis at the Institute of Biophysics, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Professor Volova is conducting research in the field of physico-chemical biology and biotechnology and is a well-known expert in the field of microbial physiology and biotechnology. Dr. Volova has created and developed a new and original branch in chemoautotrophic biosynthesis, in which the two main directions of the XXI century technologies are conjugate, hydrogen energy and biotechnology. The obtained fundamental results provided significant outputs and were developed by the unique biotechnical producing systems, based on hydrogen biosynthesis for single-cell protein, amino acids, and enzymes. Under the guidance of Professor Volova, the pilot production facility of single cell protein, utilizing hydrogen, had been created and put into operation. The possibility of involvement of man-made sources of hydrogen into biotechnological processes as a substrate, including synthesis gas from brown coals and vegetable wastes, was demonstrated in her research. She had initiated and deployed in Russia the comprehensive research on microbial degradable bioplastics; the results of this research cover various aspects of biosynthesis, metabolism, physiological role, structure, and properties of these biopolymers and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), and have made a scientific basis for their biomedical applications and allowed them to be used for biomedical research. Professor Volova is the author of more than 300 scientific works, including 13 monographs, 16 inventions, and a series of textbooks for universities.
