Biotechnology:

 Biotechnology deals with micro-organisms, plants or animal cells or may be their enzymes to produce products and processes useful to humans.

Now-a-days the scope of biotechnology is world-wide in many fields:

• Therapeutics
•  Diagnostics
• Genetically modified crops for agriculture 
• Processed food 
• Bio-remediation 
• Waste treatment
• Energy production

There are three major research areas in bio-technology:

• Providing the best catalyst in the form of improved organism usually a microbe or pure enzyme.
• Creating optimal conditions through engineering for a catalyst to act.
• Downstream processing technologies to purify the protein/organic compound.
