Achievements In Bio-Technology

For example, they have manipulated living organisms to produce products through new processes. The Egyptians used yeast to bake leftover bread, the Chinese developed fermentation techniques for brewing and making cheese, and the Aztecs used spirulina algae to bake cakes.

Today, biotechnology is used in myriad fields, including agriculture, clinical applications, bioremediation, and forensics, where DNA sequencing is common practice. Industry and medicine use techniques such as PCR, immunoassay and recombinant DNA. Proven technologies, both at laboratory and scale level, were demonstrated in the field.

Patents, innovation and technology transfer to industry and close interaction with industry have given a new direction to biotechnological research in India. Initiatives have been taken to promote transgenic plant research focusing on pest and disease resistance, nutritional quality and silkworm genome analysis. Advancements in science, many of them from USDA scientists and USDA-funded research, have opened new opportunities for farmers to address market needs and environmental challenges.

USDA supports the safe and appropriate use of science and technology, including biotechnology, to help meet the 21st century agriculture challenges and consumer needs. The increase of biotechnology in agriculture has changed and will continue to change the way agriculture works in the United States in the long run. Many new plant varieties have been developed and bred by farmers to produce using genetic engineering in which plant genes are manipulated using modern molecular biology techniques commonly called recombinant DNA technology.

For many people, the term "biotechnology" means genetically modified organisms, alien species, toxic weapons, hormones or genetically modified beef. When we try to decipher these two simple terms from science, biology and technology, it is suggested to laypeople that the language of the word biotechnology is technology that makes our lives more comfortable and convenient through the use of biological resources.

It is interesting to learn and understand how biotechnology has developed. The term biotechnology was first used in 1919 by Karl Erkey, a Hungarian engineer. In fact, biotechnology was practiced long before the term was coined in its current form.

These discoveries, inventions and modifications are evidence that the evolution of biotechnology was common at that time. They also show that novel biotinks can be used to replicate vascular structures. The historical applications of biotechnologies of the time are in order.

This technology can be used in molecular biology and medical applications, such as better aligning virus RNA with human RNA. Targeted use of human RNA, so that it is transcribed into DNA instead of DNA, enables temporary effects rather than permanent changes in the human genome. Their technology is available to researchers via an interactive website and free open source software accompanied by a guide to creating guided RNAs that target SARS-CoV-2 RNA in the genome.

In the field of biotechnology, 2017 marked pioneering research and cutting-edge technology in countless areas. He explored controversial areas of medical biotechnology including problems such as stem cell research and gene therapy and the ethical issues that they raise. On the other hand, molecular biology, human genetic disorders, brain research, plant genome research, development, validation and commercialization of diagnostic kits, vaccines, communicable diseases, food biotechnology, biodiversity conservation, bioprospective, setting of microreproduction parks, biotechnology-based development, SC / ST in rural areas and women in different states.

He is a Senior Visiting Professor at the Institute for Advanced Studies at the United Nations University. Ana Rosu is a graduate of Faculty of Biology of the University of Bucharest where she works as a scientific researcher in the field of cell biology and plant biotechnology, and Institute of Biology of the Romanian Academy of Sciences where she obtained her doctorate in Biology in 1987.

Developed fusarium-resistant plants (Carnation, Lilium, Robinia, Pseudoacacia, Rhizoctonia), root rot resistant plants such as strawberry, cauliflower, Alternaria, alternata-resistant plants, tomato varieties (Solan, Vajr, Alternarias, Dianthi), resistant plants such as carnation (CV, Tempo), flower color variant of chrysanthemum (Somaclon variant).

Water stress tolerant tomato plants were developed by cell selection. Fusarium tolerant cell lines of peas (Septoria obesa), tolerant cell lines of chrysanthemums, salt-stress-tolerant cell lines and tomato cell selection were developed. Cell lines of the shoots of the apple rootstock MM106 and M7 were selected as tolerant fungal cultures by filtering collet rot (Phytophthora cactorum) and white rot (Dematophora necatrix) as tolerant cultures.

Biotechnology is the general use of living material or biological products to create new products for their use in various pharmaceutical, medical, agricultural and ecological applications, with the ultimate goal of benefiting humanity, for example the production of recombinant protein-resisting plants, vegetables, animals with a high milk content, the list is endless. If we want to understand how all this works, we need to know the starting point of material biotechnology. A rough draft of the human genome map has been created, showing the location of more than 30,000 genes.

Critics have responded by arguing that hunger and malnutrition are the result of political and social circumstances, and that food shortages cannot be solved by technological solutions. Some barriers and widespread misunderstandings have been reduced to plant biotechnology, genetic engineering and transgenes. Freedom, rights and ethical issues relate to biotechnology, which gives people power over others.

For example, the argument that food production had nothing to do with famine has several weaknesses and many positive outcomes from the Green Revolution of the mid-twentieth century, the global expansion of modern agriculture technologies, are often cited. From this perspective, the Green Revolution has not lifted people from poverty, but rather exposed them to new forms of technological control from businesses, new environmental problems, mechanization, and new vulnerabilities on world markets. For example, arguments against the creation of transgenic animals for research into human diseases will inevitably fail, because there are differences that make human projections unreliable in any case.
