"Biotechnology encompasses the variety of methods available for manipulating living cells and organisms. It is having an increasing impact on all aspects of medicine, from helping in the understanding of the aetiology of disease, to its diagnosis and treatment. This growing importance of medical biotechnology means that a general understanding of this rapidly advancing field is essential for all medical graduates and medical scientists. This book places emphasis on the medical applications of biotechnology, rather than the details fo the experimental techniques"--Back cover.

Biotechnology, an allied subject of biology, is also associated with its neighbouring subject areas, such as: biochemistry, biophysics, biostatistics, pharmacology, cell biology, molecular biology, clinical biology, genomics and proteomics and nanotechnology, which makes this subject an advanced area in medical and health sciences. The exponential growth of the above fields in the past three decades, particularly information technology and biomedical technology and their myriad applications in medicine and health sciences, makes the field of biotechnology a potential front runner. The sophistication in biological techniques and methods makes biotechnological studies more precise, interesting, measurable and reproducible. Fundamentals of Medical Biotechnology is designed to cover all the areas of biotechnological advancement in cell biology, genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, metabolism, microbiology, clinical pharmacology, immunology, biostatistics and bioinformatics. It helps students of biology, biotechnology, medical sciences and other health sciences to learn the advancement in the field of biomedicine and biotechnology. The book also covers the basics of diagnostic techniques in clinical biochemistry, specific to the technologies addressed in various chapters in the book, at both theoretical and application levels. The book focuses on why these techniques are useful in a clinical context and considers their potential uses, limitations and the ethical considerations that surround their use. This book is based on the recent development in the research dynamics of medical biotechnology, biochemistry and the progress in these fields. It also provides current reference material for students entering the field of medical and bioinformatics, academicians as well as research scientists. The book is a useful source of knowledge for students at senior secondary level, undergraduate and postgraduates in biotechnology and allied subjects, and MBBS / BDS level students looking for an accessible introduction of the subject.

An Introduction to Biotechnology is a biotechnology textbook aimed at undergraduates. It covers the basics of cell biology, biochemistry and molecular biology, and introduces laboratory techniques specific to the technologies addressed in the book; it addresses specific biotechnologies at both the theoretical and application levels.Biotechnology is a field that encompasses both basic science and engineering. There are currently few, if any, biotechnology textbooks that adequately address both areas. Engineering books are equation-heavy and are written in a manner that is very difficult for the non-engineer to understand. Numerous other attempts to present biotechnology are written in a flowery manner with little substance. The author holds one of the first PhDs granted in both biosciences and bioengineering. He is more than an author enamoured with the wow-factor associated with biotechnology; he is a practicing researcher in gene therapy, cell/tissue engineering, and other areas and has been involved with emerging technologies for over a decade. Having made the assertion that there is no acceptable text for teaching a course to introduce biotechnology to both scientists and engineers, the author committed himself to resolving the issue by writing his own. - The book is of interest to a wide audience because it includes the necessary background for understanding how a technology works. - Engineering principles are addressed, but in such a way that an instructor can skip the sections without hurting course content - The author has been involved with many biotechnologies through his own direct research experiences. The text is more than a compendium of information - it is an integrated work written by an author who has experienced first-hand the nuances associated with many of the major biotechnologies of general interest today.

Medical Biotechnology is designed as a textbook for undergraduate students of biotechnology, especially those who are pursuing a course in Human Molecular Genetics. Medical Biotechnology as a separate course is offered in a few universities and is increasingly finding favour as a mainstreamdisciplineMedical Biotechnology is a multidisciplinary subject that brings together the combined research and applications from the fields of r-DNA technology, microbiology and medicine. The book starts with a brief overview of biotechnology and healthcare. It then goes on to describe various therapeuticaltechniques based on DNA, RNA and proteins. Key topics like molecular pharming, drug design and delivery, chiral technology, regenerative medicine, nanomedicine and pharmacogenomics are dealt with in great detail. Emphasis is laid on management and analysis of clinical data, various processesinvolving biomolecules and the use of softwares to analyze genomes and proteomes.The topics are presented in a lucid, methodical way and care has been taken to keep the level of discussion simple. The various concepts are complemented by numerous practical examples and end-chapter exercises.

This book explores the journey of biotechnology, searching for new avenues and noting the impressive accomplishments to date. It has harmonious blend of facts, applications and new ideas. Fast-paced biotechnologies are broadly applied and are being continuously explored in areas like the environmental, industrial, agricultural and medical sciences. The sequencing of the human genome has opened new therapeutic opportunities and enriched the field of medical biotechnology while analysis of biomolecules using proteomics and microarray technologies along with the simultaneous discovery and development of new modes of detection are paving the way for ever-faster and more reliable diagnostic methods. Life-saving bio-pharmaceuticals are being churned out at an amazing rate, and the unraveling of biological processes has facilitated drug designing and discovery processes. Advances in regenerative medical technologies (stem cell therapy, tissue engineering, and gene therapy) look extremely promising, transcending the limitations of all existing fields and opening new dimensions for characterizing and combating diseases.

Biotechnology is the major technology of the 21st century, yet few people realise how much it impacts on many aspects of human society. The defining aim of this new fifth edition is to re-establish the correct understanding of the term biotechnology. Using the straightforward style that made the previous editions of his textbook so popular, John Smith once again helps students with the deciphering and use of biological knowledge. He explains the historical developments in biotechnology and the range of activities from brewing beer, the treatment of sewage and other wastes, and the creation of biofuels. He also discusses the innovations in molecular biology, genomics and proteomics, systems biology and their impact on new biotechnology. In this edition John Smith also re-examines the ethics and morality of aspects of biotechnology and puts new emphasis on stem cells and regenerative medicine and micro RNA.
