This journal focuses on the study of fermentation processes across various applications, including industrial production of compounds like vancomycin, the breakdown of feedstuffs in animal digestion, and the development of functional foods and ingredients. It also covers the use of fermentation in waste valorization, biofuel production, and the creation of biopolymers and microbial pigments. Research includes microbial metabolism, enzyme activity, and the optimization of fermentation conditions for yield and product quality.
