Biotechnology is a multidisciplinary field that harness biological processes, organism and systems to develop technologies and products aimed at improving human life. Drawing on principles from genomics, immunology, and recombinant genetics, it plays a critical role in the development of pharmaceutical therapies, diagnostic tests, and other biotechnological solutions. Key branches of biotechnology include bioinformatics, green biotechnology, violet biotechnology, and yellow biotechnology. Green biotechnology applies biotechnological methods to agricultural processes, enhancing crop productivity and sustainability. Violet biotechnology addresses the ethical, legal, and philosophical issues associated with biotechnological innovations. Yellow biotechnology pertains to the use of biotechnology in food production, particularly in the creation of genetically modified organisms and improving food safety. This book outlines the theory and applications of biotechnology in detail. It attempts to understand the multiple branches that fall under the discipline and how such concepts have practical applications. It will serve as a valuable source of reference for those interested in this field.
