Practicing Success
Give the proper terms for the following statements:- |
a) Bio process engineering b) Genetic engineering a) Genetic engineering b) Bioprocess engineering a) Downstream processing b) Southern blotting None of these |
a) Genetic engineering b) Bioprocess engineering |
The correct answer is Option (2)- (a)- Genetic engineering (b)Biopress engineering Biotechnology deals with techniques os using live organisms or enzymes from organisms to produce products and processes useful to mankind. Among many,the two core techniques that enabled birth of modern biotechnology are: Genetic Engineering- Techniques to alter the chemistry of genetic material (DNA and RNA),to induce these into host organisms and thus change the phenotype of the host organism. b) Bioprocess engineering: Maintenance of sterile ( microbial contamination free) ambience in chemical engineering processes to enable growth of only the desired microbe/ eukaryotic cell in large quantities for the manufacture of biotechnological products like antibiotics, vaccines, enzymes,etc. |
