Establishment of non-aqueous biotransformation system and its application in castoff from Chinese materia medica industrilization

The resource utilization of castoff from Chinese materia medica (CMM) industrialization is an important measure to effectively improve the efficiency of resource utilization, save resources, recycle economy, and develop environment-friendly economy. Based on the conversion efficiency of resource utilization model of castoff from CMM industrialization, this article mentions the non-aqueous biotransformation method of herb-medicine castoff, discusses the suited non-aqueous biotransformation systems, and introduces the screening and application of organic-solvent-tolerant extremophiles and enzymes. This article points out that non-aqueous biotransfornation technology is a breakthrough in the resource utilization of castoff from CMM industrialization, and it would promote the realization of herb-medicine castoff resource utilization.
