प्रश्न
Mention the application of Biotechnology.
उत्तर
- Biotechnology is one of the most important applied interdisciplinary sciences of the 21st century. It is the trusted area that enables us to find a beneficial way of life.
- Biotechnology has wide applications in various sectors like agriculture, medicine, the environment, and commercial industries.
- This science has an invaluable outcome like transgenic varieties of plants e.g. transgenic cotton (Bt-cotton), rice, tomato, tobacco, cauliflower, potato, and banana.
- The development of transgenics as pesticide-resistant, stress-resistant, and disease-resistant varieties of agricultural crops is the immense outcome of biotechnology.
- The synthesis of human insulin and blood protein in E.coli and utilized for insulin deficiency disorder in humans is a breakthrough in biotech industries in medicine.
- The synthesis of vaccines, enzymes, antibiotics, dairy products, and beverages are the products of the biotech industries.
- The biochip-based biological computer is one of the successes of biotechnology.
- Genetic engineering involves genetic manipulation, tissue culture involves aseptic cultivation of totipotent plant cells into plant clones under controlled atmospheric conditions.
- Single-cell protein from Spirulina is utilized in food industries.
- Production of secondary metabolites, biofertilizers, biopesticides, and enzymes.
- Biomass energy, biofuel, bioremediation, and phytoremediation for environmental biotechnology.
