Title:
BIOTRANSFORMATION OF COMPOUNDS USING NON-PROKARYOTIC MICROALGAE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004081176
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method for biotransformation of organic compounds using non-prokaryotic microalgae is disclosed. The method is useful to biotransform a chemical precusor compound, preferably a heterocyclic compound, to a chemically distinct final product, which is useful in, e.g., pharmaceutical, agrichemical, nutraceutical, ecological, hazardous waste, food flavoring, or food additive applications.
