Industrial Microbiology is a branch of applied microbiology that focuses on the use of microorganisms in industrial processes for the large-scale production of useful products such as antibiotics, enzymes, alcohol, organic acids, vitamins, and biofuels. Industrial Microbiology is the study and use of microorganisms in industrial production processes to manufacture commercial products through fermentation, biotransformation, and bioconversion.
