Proceedings of the Twenty-First Annual Biochemical Engineering Symposium

The 21st Annual Biochemical Engineering Symposium was held at Colorado State University on April 20, 1991. The primary goals of this symposium series are to provide an opportunity for students to present and publish their research work and to promote informal discussions on biochemical engineering research.
