More on the industrial exploitation of Nitrile Hydratases

I have just been pointed in the direction of a rather nice summary ("Nitrile hydratases in synthesis") of the state of play for nitrile hydratase commercial exploitation from the May/June 2008 issue of Chemistry Today from Sander van Pelt. It includes more details of the Mitsubishi Rayon, Lonza, and DuPont usage, and shows how SNF Floerger were looking to introduce biocatalytic acrylamide production to Europe.
