The agricultural industry in Asia is a primary market for the growing number of biotechnology-derived products and genetically modified organisms which are useful in agriculture.
With advances in our understanding of the molecular biology of human diseases and the development of efficient gene transfer techniques, the treatment of such diseases as cancer and infectious disease using gene therapy has progressed from a distant prospect to a distinct possibility in a very short time.
This book is principally concerned with the relatively complex small molecules produced by plants, which are important as drugs, fine chemicals, fragrances, flavours and biologically-active dietary constituents.
This book provides the biographies, and a related summary, of geneticists and breeders of maize who have contributed to the major discoveries in the 20th century.
This book is aimed at scientists, technologists, engineers, and undergraduate and graduate students involved in analytical and process biochemistry and biotechnology.
The phenomenon of consciousness has long been one of the great mysteries of life, perhaps because it is inexplicable in terms of the deterministic theories of classical science.
The power of modelization in physics and in engineering is not in doubt, while in the biotechnological field many theoretical studies stop at the description level.
Aimed at scientists and non-specialised readers alike, this book retraces the source of national and international biotechnology programmes by examining the origins of biotechnology and its political and economic interpretation by large nations.
