Definition of Biotechnology
Biotechnology is a branch of science that studies the use of
living things (bacteria, fungi, viruses, etc.) and products from
living things (enzymes, alcohols) in the production process to
produce goods and services. Today, the development of
biotechnology is not only based on biology, but also on other
applied and pure sciences, such as biochemistry, computers,
molecular biology, microbiology, genetics, chemistry,
mathematics, and so on. In other words, biotechnology is an
applied science that combines various branches of science in
the process of producing goods and services.
