Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Fungal Macromolecule Applications in Life Sciences: Biological Activity and Medical, Industrial, and Agricultural Applications provides a comprehensive guide to the diverse applications of fungal macromolecules, such as proteins, lipid carbohydrates, and nucleic acids. Chapters include an introduction to the background and importance of fungal macromolecules in various life science fields, followed by a detailed overview of the methods for isolating, characterizing, and assessing the structural and functional characteristics of fungal macromolecules.
The book discusses the practical applications of fungal macromolecules in the biomedical, agricultural, and industry sectors. It explores potential uses of fungal macromolecules as pharmaceuticals, anti-cancer agents, and inhibitors of bacterial biofilm formation as well as in plant disease management, crop development, enzyme production, biosurfactants, and sustainable and functional food production. The book also examines the antimicrobial properties of fungal macromolecules and their role in managing disease and stimulating human immunology.
This comprehensive and multidisciplinary coverage makes Fungal Macromolecule Applications in Life Sciences a valuable resource for scientists, professionals, and advanced students across various fields, including microbiology, biotechnology, biochemistry, pharmacology, agriculture, food science, and biomaterials, looking to enhance their understanding of fungal macromolecules in life sciences and bridge the gap between theory and practical application.
- Offers a comprehensive understanding of fungal macromolecules (proteins, lipid carbohydrates, and nucleic acids), including their classification, isolation, and structural and functional characterization
- Discusses the biological activities and properties of fungal macromolecules, including their potential benefits and side effects
- Provides practical guidance on how to extract, purify, and utilize fungal macromolecules in various applications
