The UN Convention on Biological Diversity states, "Biotechnology is any technological application that uses biological systems, living organisms, or derivatives thereof, to make or modify products or processes for specific use". The OECD (the Organization of Economic Co-operation and Development) defines biotechnology as "...the application of scientific and engineering principles to the processing of materials by biological agents". Thus, "Biotechnology" basically means using ... Related Article Tags: , ,
Biotechnology is one of the most important technologies made by man. This kind of technology has its own advantage and drawback for humankind. For so long as it is employed definitely, this advanced technology will surely bring benefits to everybody. Life science is another branch of science that talks about life as its name suggests. Biotechnology is also about life and everything living thing in this world. This is AKA genetic engineering. The concept of this genetic engineering send fear to some people. Actually, genetically treated foods have not been proved to create health danger. Related Article Tags: , , ,
