Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is biotechnology?
Biotechnology is the branch of science which deals about the benefits and application of plants, animals and microbial cell cultures at the technological level. Today, biotechnology covers many different disciplines (eg genetics, biochemistry, molecular biology, etc.). New technologies and products are developed every year within the areas of eg medicine (development of new medicines and therapies), agriculture (development of genetically modified plants, biofuels biological treatment) or industrial biotechnology (production of chemicals, paper, textiles and food).
2. What are the different branches of biotechnology?
Top five branches of biotechnology are: 1. Animal Biotechnology - It deals with the development of transgenic animals for increased milk or meat production with resistance to various diseases. 2. Medical Biotechnology - Deals about the large scale production of hormones, blood serum proteins; in the development of antibiotics, and other medically useful products. 3. Industrial Biotechnology - It deals with commercial production of various useful organic substances. 4. Environmental Biotechnology - It deals with detoxification of waste and industrial effluents, treatment of sewage water, and control of plant diseases and insects through the use of biological agents such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, etc. 5. Plant Biotechnology - It deals with development of transgenic plants with resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses; development of haploids, embryo rescue, clonal multiplication, cryopreservation, etc..
3. To which branch of biotechnology does the department of Biotechnology at Hindustan College of Arts & Science confined to?
The course offered by HCAS is Biotechnology, which covers all the above branches of the subjects.
