Biotechnology is a field that combines biology with technology to develop innovative products and processes for various applications. It makes use of cellular and biomolecular processes to solve problems and create useful products. Key areas include genetic engineering, where DNA is manipulated to improve organisms, and bioprocessing, which uses living cells or their components to produce goods like pharmaceuticals, biofuels, and biodegradable plastics. Medical biotechnology advances include gene therapy, personalized medicine, and the development of vaccines and diagnostic tools. Agricultural biotechnology enhances crop yields and resistance to pests and diseases. Environmental biotechnology focuses on pollution control and waste management through biological means. With its interdisciplinary nature, biotechnology holds immense potential for addressing global challenges in health, agriculture, and sustainability, making it a cornerstone of modern science and industry. This book presents the complex subject of biotechnology in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. Some of the diverse topics covered in this book address the varied branches that fall under this category. This book will help new researchers by foregrounding their knowledge in this branch.
