An investigation of the isolation, characterisation and application of hydantoinases for the industrial production of amino acids

This thesis describes a series of investigations into the hydantoin-hydrolysing activity of bacterial strains RU-KM1 and RU-OR, which were previously isolated for their ability to hydrolyse hydantoins to amino acids. The main aim of the study was to develop biotransformations with potential applicat...
