Biotechnology can be defined in many ways.
Biotechnology is technology in which biological system, organism or cells is modified or developed to manufacture the products used to improve the quality of life.
Biotechnology is also defined as the technology to modify the genetic material of living cells or organism and it produce modified products or perform new functions.
In a simple language biotechnology is the use of living things to make products with good quality.
Application of biotechnology:
Biotechnology in medicine:
Use of the living organism or cells to diagnose, prevent and disease .gene therapy, recombinant DNA and polymerase chain is most widely used.
Development of tailor -med medicine, this drugs is made up of proteins, enzyme or RNA molecules that associated with gene. Vaccines for some disease also produced by biotechnology technology. Genetics test determine the cancer.
In gene therapy gene is introduced to cure of disease that caused by mutation of gene.
Insulin for diabetic patient, clotting factors, erythropoietin gene also produced by biotechnology
Formulation of antibody which is known as monoclonal antibody, production of vaccines, many enzymes and hormones are produced.
Biotechnology in agriculture:
Genetically modified organisms (GMO) are the most important example of biotechnology application in agriculture.
Genomic helps to develop improve crop quality and enhance resistance factor .It also help to breeding disease resistant and good quality of crop.
By using the biotechnology productivity of the crop can be increased.
Tissue Culture is also best technique which is used in agriculture field
Biotechnology in food processing:
Biotechnology has also important role in food processing. In many food preparations fermentation method is used. improved fermentation technology is developed which help in manufacturing the food products.
Improved technology of enzyme production help in production of food. amylase and chymosin enzyme are prepared by biotechnology technique .Gene cloning technique is used to prepare enzyme.
Preparation of wine is also one of application of biotechnology.
Technology such as DNA sequeuencing is used in food production.
Biotechnology in environment :
With the help of biotechnology plant can convert into bio fuel. Biofulel is defined as the fuel which produced through biological process.
we can treat sewage using treatment of microorganism.
