Recent Achievements of Biotechnology

By employing developments in other disciplines including engineering physics chemistry and mathematics/information technology biotechnology as we know it today is the ideal amalgam of biology and its applications. Recent innovations and developments in fields like genetic engineering molecular biology and OMICS synthetic biology and nanotechnology further open the door to the achievement of various selection criteria and the creation of tailor-made microbe-metabolites that can be successfully used for various applications. Beyond academic studies of microorganisms plants and animals biotechnology is now used in a variety of day-to-day industries including the petroleum sector medicines cosmetics green nanotechnology and environmental applications to name a few.
