Methods in Non-Aqueous Enzymology : Birkhauser : 9783764358037 : 3764358033 : 28 Oct 2014 : Extending the range of enzymatic catalysis by using non-aqueous media has now developed into a powerful approach in biochemistry and biotechnology. One peculiar feature which distinguishes it from the conventional enzymology (carried out in aqueous buffers) is that the awareness of different parameters that control and influence the behaviour of enzymes in such environments has emerged rather slowly. Science is about being able to repeat what somebody else has done. Absence of knowledge about such well-defined parameters/fac­ tors has sometimes made some workers rather cautious and diffident about using this approach in their laboratories. But for this, non-aqueous enzymol­ ogy would be more widely practised. It is these thoughts that made me feel that the availability of some well-defined protocols for various applications invol­ ving enzymes in non-aqueous environments would further catalyze t
