Biocatalysis

Catalysts are chemicals that speed up a reaction, causes the reaction to occur but do not take part in it. Enzymes are the biological catalysts, found inside the body, catalyzing variety of reactions going on in vivo. The term “Biocatalysis” or “Biotransformation” is used when enzymes catalyze a reaction or help in transformations.

Protein Microchips: A New Era of Drug Discovery, Biocatalysis and Diagnosis

Over the last decade or so, the field of drug discovery, diagnosis, high-throughput screening, and biochemical analyses have been revolutionized with the discovery of modern and sophisticated instruments and new technologies. Protein microchips is one of them.
