Evaluation of the bio-oxidation of alkanes

This thesis documents the progress made in utilising the alkane hydroxylase complex of P.putida GPo1 expressed in E.coli as a whole-cell biocatalyst for the oxidation of n-dodecane to 1-dodecanol. The process is of considerable interest due to the difficulty in performing the reaction using conventi...
