Fostering global communication to advance the emerging areas of biotechnology
The latest issue of Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry is now available.

One of the highlights of this issue is a review entitled 'Metabolomics as a complementary tool in cell culture' by Soo Hean Gary Khoo (Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, Birmingham, U.K.) and Mohamed Al-Rubeai (School of Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering, University College Dublin, Belfield, Dublin, Republic of Ireland).
