AN OVERVIEW OF BIOTECHNOLOGY

                                                                                                                                                         OVERVIEW OF BIOTECHNOLOGY

Man has been employing living organisms knowingly or unknowingly from prehistoric times for the production of various things like alcoholic beverages,curd,cheese etc.The ancient Indian system of medicine Ayurveda used the self-generated alcohol as the medium in the
medicines.From these it is very evident that the the term use of biotechnology is not a recent phenomenon but a very old technology.
The term biotechnology was used before the 20th century for making dairy products cheese, curd, bread, wine, beer etc.These were traditional activities thats why  none of these could be considered biotechnology in the modern sense. The process of fermentation for making the products like alcohol,beer,wine. dairy products, different type of organic acid like vinegar, citric acid, amino acids and vitamins can be say or termed as the classical or traditional biotechnology.

 

                                             BIOTECHNOLOGY- 

There are several definitions of biotechnology but in a simple language Biotechnology is the 'controlled use of  biological agents like cells cell or cellular components for beneficial use'.
                                                                         OR
Biotechnology can be defined as 'the use of living organisms,cell or cellular components for the production of  compounds or precise genetic improvement of living things for the benefit of human being.
                                                                        OR
Biotechnology is that technological application that uses biological system, living, organism, to make or modify products or processes for specific use.


-Along with the development of science, The Expert have started again to develop biotechnology by utilizing scientific principle through research. In modern biotechnology people can produce products effectively and efficiently.

-Modern Biotechnology is not only used in the Food Industry but has covered too many fields like genetic engineering,pollution management and so far. This is based on the manipulation besides utilizing microbiology and biochemistry on basic way.
