Karl Ereky, A Hungarian engineer who first coined the term in 1919.
The production of products from raw materials with the aid of
living oganism .
Biotechnology The use of the living organisms
themselves to make technological
advances and adapt those
technologies to various fields.

Biotechnology has emerged into an


integral domain of science.

Aim to utilize and manipulate living


organisms on a molecular and
cellular levels to develop tools and
products for the benefit of the
ecosystem.
Biotechnology

“Biotechnology is technology based on biology – biotechnology


harnesses cellular and biomolecular processes to develop
technologies and products that help improve our lives and the health
of our planet. We have used the biological processes of
microorganisms for more than 6,000 years to make useful food
products, such as bread and cheese, and to preserve dairy products.”

"The Integration of natural science and organisms, cell, parts thereof,


and molecular analogues fr products and services.''

MODERN BIOTECHNOLOGY
Structure, organization and reproduction
Biochemistry Beadle and Tatum (Neurospora crassa)
Synthesis of organic compounds One gene, one enzyme hypothesis
cell extracts for fermentation (enzymes versus Charles Yanofsky 
whole cells) Genes determine structure of proteins
GeneticsResurrection of Gregor Mendel’s Hershey and Chase
findings  1866  1900s X-ray crystallography
Theory of Inheritance (ratios dependent on traits chargaff – DNA base ratios
of parents) Structural model of DNA developed
Theory of Transmission factors DNA Revolution
W.H. Sutton – 1902 Breaking the genetic code
Chromosomes = inheritance factors
