ABSTRACT
The broad discipline of biotechnology uses living creatures and biological processes to transform numerous industries. Recombinant DNA and genetic engineering improve medicine. New medications, vaccines, and gene therapies result from this progress. GMOs with better features are created using biotechnology, enhancing agricultural output and food security. Use of biological catalysts for biofuel and enzyme production benefits industry. Waste treatment with live organisms is environmental biotechnology. Food and beverage quality and quantity are improved by fermentation and genetic manipulation. Genomic, proteomics, and synthetic biology research deepens biological understanding and advances technology. Biotechnology has great potential, but ethical, social, and environmental considerations demand careful use. Future biotechnology promises advancements in several fields. Healthcare expects precision medicine. Treatment efficacy and adverse effects should improve with this approach. Genetic editing, notably CRISPR, may change genes accurately, affecting medicine, agriculture, and other fields. Monoclonal antibodies and therapeutic proteins could transform medicine. Growing synthetic biology will enable bio-based products and personalised beings. Biotechnology will create GM crops with increased nutrition and resistance to advance agriculture. Sustainable bioremediation and products will enhance the environment. Neuroengineering and neurological illness treatments may benefit from neurobiotechnology. By producing fully functional tissues and organs, 3D bioprinting could transform regenerative medicine. Data analytics, bioinformatics, and biotechnology will help us analyse massive biological datasets. Sustainable, renewable green biotechnology can tackle environmental problems. Thus, biotechnology will affect human and environmental health through interdisciplinary collaboration and ethical governance.
