One of the recent definitions of biotechnology is, “The application of Scientific & Engineering Principles to the processing of Materials by biological agents to provide goods & services”.
Biotechnology is a package term for biological technology. It is the integrated use of molecular biology, Biochemistry, Microbiology & Genetic Engineering used for the welfare of human beings Biotechnologies are applied across several sectors of economic activity, including health care, Agriculture, Food processing & Industrial applications. Biotechnology is a young science, which is in budding stage, with limitless possibilities.
Where all other branches science is saturated, biotechnology is an emerging field all over the world. It is this science which will yield the wonder drugs of tomorrow is also new varieties of plants & animals.
