Description

Biotechnology is the science of applied biological process that blends natural science and engineering to comprehend and control biology at the molecular level for a profound impact. It accomplishes gene recombination, cloning of living things, and splicing of genes from the DNA of one organism into the genome of unrelated species. It plays a significant role in bio-agriculture, genomics, biochips, medicines, robotic military, bioinformatics, the biotech industry, stem cell research, fingerprinting, and bio-manufacturing which is essential for improving national security. Modern biotechnology is a multidisciplinary field and has proven a miracle for militaries from both; an offensive and defensive standpoint. Biotechnology has both prospects and constraints. Bio-weapons lead to disasters more dangerous than nuclear accidents. The database freely available on the internet has the potential for the development of a wide range of novel pathogens that can attack the plant, animal, and human populations worldwide.
