A Textbook of Biotechnology


Book Description

FOR UNIVERSITIY & COLLEGE STUDENTS IN INDIA & ABROAD Due to expanding horizon of biotechnology, it was difficult to accommodate the current information of biotechnology in detail. Therefore, a separate book entitled Advanced Biotechnology has been written for the Postgraduate students of Indian University and Colleges. Therefore, the present form of A Textbook of Biotechnology is totally useful for undergraduate students. A separate section of Probiotics has been added in Chapter 18. Chapter 27 on Experiments on Biotechnology has been deleted from the book because most of the experiments have been written in ';Practical Microbiology' by R.C. Dubey and D.K. Maheshwari. Bibliography has been added to help the students for further consultation of resource materials.




TEXTBOOK OF BIOTECHNOLOGY, 4TH ED


Book Description

Market_Desc: A bible of Biotechnology that provides a comprehensive and in-depth knowledge of all core concepts of Biotechnology. A book that caters to the need of beginners as well as the professionals. Special Features: · The first three editions were received extremely well.· The book has been authored by as many as 39 well-known professors from leading institutes and universities.· Conforms to the recommendations of the expert committees who had developed the curriculum for Biotechnology.· A very well illustrated book.· The format of the book has also been modified in conformity with latest international quality process for illustrations and e-publishing.Revision in the Fourth Edition:Significant advances have taken place in certain areas since the publication of the third edition, and the students ought to be informed about these advances. Hence, another revision of some of the chapters has become necessary. The chapters that have been revised in this fourth edition of the Textbook of Biotechnology are · Chapter 1 Biomolecules· Chapter 6 Metabolic Pathways and Their Regulation· Chapter 10 Medical Microbiology· Chapter 13 Molecular Biology· Chapter 14 Genetic Engineering· Chapter 15 Plant Biotechnology· Chapter 16 Genomics and Functional Genomics· Chapter 17 Bioprocess Engineering and Technology· Chapter 22 Intellectual Property Rights in Biotechnology About The Book: It was felt by several teachers and the editor as well, that the sequence of the chapters in the book did not reflect the sequence in which a student ought to study the various areas to fully appreciate the different aspects of Biotechnology. Hence, the sequence of the chapters in the book was kept exactly as the sequence in which the expert committees had arranged the topics in the recommended Biotechnology curriculum. More teachers have commented on this matter since the publication of the second edition. In the third edition of the book, this anomalous practice has been discontinued and the sequence of chapters has been revised. In this edition significant revision has been carried out in the chapters on Medical Microbiology, Biophysical Chemistry, and Genomics and Functional Genomics.

From Breakthrough to Blockbuster


Book Description

"Beginning in the 1970s, several scientific breakthroughs promised to transform the creation of new medicines. As investors sought to capitalize on these Nobel Prize-winning discoveries, the biotech industry grew to thousands of small companies around the world. Each sought to emulate what the major pharmaceutical companies had been doing for a century or more, but without the advantages of scale, scope, experience, and massive resources. How could a large collection of small companies, most with fewer than 50 employees, compete in one of the world's most breathtakingly expensive and highly regulated industries? This book shows how biotech companies have met the challenge by creating nearly 40% more of the most important treatments for unmet medical needs. Moreover, they have done so with much lower overall costs. The book focuses on both the companies themselves and the broader biotech ecosystem that supports them. Its portrait of the crucial roles played by academic research, venture capital, contract research organizations, the capital markets, and pharmaceutical companies shows how a supportive environment enabled the entrepreneurial biotech industry to create novel medicines with unprecedented efficiency. In doing so, it also offers insights for any industry seeking to innovate in uncertain and ambiguous conditions. Looking to the future, it concludes that biomedical research will continue to be most effective in the hands of a large group of small companies as long as national healthcare policies allow the rest of the ecosystem to continue to thrive"--

Zero to Genetic Engineering Hero


Book Description

Zero to Genetic Engineering Hero is made to provide you with a first glimpse of the inner-workings of a cell. It further focuses on skill-building for genetic engineering and the Biology-as-a-Technology mindset (BAAT). This book is designed and written for hands-on learners who have little knowledge of biology or genetic engineering. This book focuses on the reader mastering the necessary skills of genetic engineering while learning about cells and how they function. The goal of this book is to take you from no prior biology and genetic engineering knowledge toward a basic understanding of how a cell functions, and how they are engineered, all while building the skills needed to do so.
