Biotechnology Topics / Categories


Agricultural Microbiology (12)
Biotechnology is a branch of biology that deals with the utilization of living beings or
Bacteriology (123)
living processes for the production of different products that are important for living
beings. Basic Microbiology (60)

Biochemical Test (114)


Biotechnology is a fairly emerging discipline that crosses technical processes like
manufacturing with biological compounds. Biochemistry (155)

The discipline utilizes both cellular and biomolecular processes to develop processes and Bioinformatics (21)

products that improve our lives and the biological system of the planet. Biology (183)
Biotechnology often overlaps with other fields like immunology, genomics, recombinant Biotechnology (28)
technology, and pharmaceutical microbiology. Book Reviews (1)
Even though biotechnology is viewed as a rather modern concept, it has been widely Cell Biology (94)
used throughout history in the form of increasing cultivation, breeding, and therapies.
Culture Media (66)
In modern times, however, biotechnology makes use of more complex concepts like
Difference Between (89)
recombinant DNA technology, plant tissue culture, among others.
Diseases (29)
Biotechnology exists in a close relationship with bioinformatics for the exploration,
Environmental Microbiology (6)
extraction, and production of biological products.
The production of insulin and antibiotics is one of the most notable examples of Epidemiology (23)

biotechnology that supports living beings and protects them from various diseases. Food Microbiology (49)

One of the first uses of biotechnology is in the agricultural area where farmers employed Genetics (78)

techniques of selective breeding in order to increase the harvest. Human Anatomy and Physiology (70)
Besides, the production of alcohol and bread by the process of fermentation is another Immunology (115)
important and commonly used biotechnological technique. Instrumentation (63)
Four of the most common applications of biotechnology in modern times are made in
Journals (1)
areas like medicine, agriculture, industries, and the environment.
Microscopy (28)
Different forms of biotechnological processes like wastewater management are
Molecular Biology (66)
considered imperative for the protection of water sources.
Mycology (33)
Plant and animal tissue culture has given new ways to form life which solves the problem
Parasitology (25)
of infertility in both plants and animals.
A branch of biotechnology called, biopharmaceuticals are involved in the utilization of Pharmacology (14)

living beings for the production of different therapeutic agents that help in the treatment Phycology (2)

of life-threatening diseases. Protocols (9)
