This books covers enzyme biotechnology from fundamental concepts to industrial applications. It examines enzyme engineering, classification, and production methods, followed by detailed analysis of major enzyme categories. The book explores specialized enzymes from marine, microbial, and fungal sources, their industrial applications in various sectors, emerging areas including enzyme-nanoparticle interactions and also includes:

- Extensive analysis of major enzyme categories: carbohydrases, proteases, lipases, and oxidoreductases

- Specialized examination of marine, microbial, fungal, and soil enzymes with biotechnological applications

- Industrial applications across dairy, textile, detergent, pharmaceutical, and green chemistry sectors

- Advanced topics in enzyme-nanoparticle interactions and biosynthesis applications

- Risk assessment and safety regulations for enzyme-containing products in commercial applications

The final section of the book addresses risk assessment and safety regulations for enzyme products, providing essential guidance for researchers and industry professionals.
