1. ROLE OF BIOTECHNOLOGY ROLE IN PHARMACEUTICS ROLE IN COSMATICS ROLE IN FOOD SCIENCE ROLE IN AGRICULTRURE ROLE IN VACCINE SPECIAL ROLE IN COVID-19 VACCINE

2. BIOTECHNOLOGY IN PHARMACEUTICS

3. ROLE OF BIOTECHNOLOGY IN PHARMACEUTICS Biotechnology is a relatively new and growing field in which the principles of biotechnology are applied to the development of drugs such as antibodies, nucleic acid products and insulin, vaccine etc .

4. SIGNIFICANCE Biotechnology is commonly used to improve medicines due to the advantages and pieces of knowledge it provides such as: Understanding the genetic composition of the human species . Foundational structure of hereditary diseases. manipulation and repairing of damaged genes to cure diseases

5. ROLE OF BIOTECHNOLOGY IN PHARMACEUTICS Biotechnology helps the pharmaceutical industry to develop new products, new processes, methods and services and to improve existing ones. A majority of therapeutic drugs in the current market are bioformulations. Such bioformulations are developed through several stages that include : Understanding the principles underlying health and disease. The fundamental molecular mechanisms governing the function of related biomolecules; synthesis and purification of the molecules.

6. ROLE OF BIOTECHNOLOGY IN COSMETICS

7. ROLE OF BIOTECHNOLOGY IN COSMETICS Cosmetics companies use biotechnology: To discover, develop, and produce components of cosmetic formulations. To evaluate the activity of these components on the skin, in particular how they can affect the changes associated with aging.

8. IMPORTANCE Beyond physical health, cosmetics can help to improve our mood, enhance our appearance and boost our self-esteem. They can also help to exhibit personal style and, as such, are an important means of social expression. Cosmetics are a prime element in complementing in individual’s inherent beauty and physical featured. Like women , men too have started using cosmetics in their daily routine. Most brands have started coming up with cosmetics specially designed for men.

9. APPLICATIONS There are a large number of differing cosmetics used for a variety of different purposes, all cosmetics are typically intended to be applied externally. These products can be applied to the face (on the skin, lips, eyebrows and eyes), to the body (on the skin, in particular the hands and nails), and to the hair. Cosmetics designed for skin care can be used to cleanse, protect the skin, as well as replenishing it, by the use of cleansers, toners, serums, moisturizers, and balms. Cosmetics designed for more general personal care, such as shampoo and body wash, can be used to cleanse the body

10. ROLE OF BIOCHEMISTRY IN ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION

11.  IMPORTANCE

12. CONTROL Some of the areas where biotechnology has proved very effective in environmental clean-up include : Landfill Technologies Bioremediation Biosensors Oil Eating Bugs Designer Bugs Pollution Control

13. ROLE OF BIOTECHNOLOGY IN FOOD PRODUCTS

14.   FOOD BIOTECHNOLOGY Food biotechnology is the use of technology to modify the genes of our food sources. Our food sources are animals, plants, and microorganisms. Food producers can use new biotechnology to produce new products with desirable characteristics.

15. IMPORTANCE With food biotechnology, we create new species of animals and plants. Food Biotechnology has importance in the industry by making enormous improvement in the quality, nutritional content, health benefits, taste etc. in a particular food Item. With food biotechnology, we use what we know about science and genetics to improve the food we eat.

16. ROLE OF BIOTECHNOLOGY IN AGRICULTURE 

17. IMPORTANCE Biotechnology has many other useful applications besides those that are medically related. Many of these are in agriculture and food science. These include the development of  transgenic crops  - the placement of genes into plants to give the crop a beneficial trait. Production of vaccines in crop plants:   Modern biotechnology is increasingly being applied for novel uses other than food. Banana trees and tomato plants have been genetically engineered to produce vaccines in their fruit.

18. BENEFITS Improved yield from crops:  Using biotechnology techniques, one or two genes may be transferred into a crop to give a new trait to that crop. This is done in the hope of increasing its yield.  Reduced dependence on fertilizers , pesticides and other agrochemicals:  Modern biotechnology in agriculture are focused on reducing the dependence of farmers on the pesticides and fertilizers. For example, Bacillus thuringiensis ( Bt ) is a soil bacterium that produces a protein that can act as an insecticide, known as the  Bt toxin. 

19. ROLE OF BIOTECHNOLOGY IN MEDICINE

20. MEDICINE BIOTECHNOLOGY “It  is a branch of medicine that uses living cells and cell materials to research and then produce pharmaceutical and diagnosing products. These products help treat and prevent diseases.” Vaccines, antibiotics, and hormones  are examples of products obtained by recombinant DNA technology. Transgenic animals have been created for experimental purposes and some are used to produce some human proteins.

21. IMPORTANCE Biotechnology is an important field that is applied to these sectors with the aim of improving the different targeted genes and customized medicines . There are numerous methods applied to biotechnology such as gene treatment , recombinant DNA technology . The name of drug used in cancer treatment produced by biotechnology is interferon. Interferons are a family of naturally-occurring proteins that are made and secreted by cells of the immune system. Interferons can promote or hinder the ability of some cells to differentiate i.e. to become specialized in their function.

22. VACCINE

23. WHAT IS VACCINE??  “A vaccine is a suspension of weakened, killed, or fragmented microorganisms or toxins or other biological preparation, such as those consisting of antibodies, lymphocytes, or mRNA, that is administered primarily to prevent disease.” Biotechnology can help a vaccine production  starting from the design and component exploration processes, everything needs to be antigenic and immunogenic components which can ensure effectiveness of the vaccine when it enters the body of the receiver.

24. HOW BIOTECHNOLOGY HELP IN PREVENTION OF DISEASE ? PRODUCTION OF DIFFERENT CATEGORIES OF VACCINES:   Vaccination is administration of antigenic material (Vaccine) to stimulate an individual’s immune system to develop immunity against pathogen TYPES OF VACCINES:          1. Inactivated vaccines   2. DNA vaccines      3. mRNA vaccines

25. ROLE OF BIOTECHNOLOGY IN COVID-19

26. ROLE OF BIOTECHNOLOGY IN COVID-19 Biotechnology has been playing a vital role in understanding how diseases spread and how fatal they can potentially be to humans. Tools that can accurately predict diseases and can change the course a disease takes can easily be created using biotechnology. Scientists are able to understand, from where a disease is originated, based on scientific tracing methods.  Different drugs are repurposed for several diseases by a method called drug-repositioning. Through drug repurposing, approved drugs that were used in the treatment of other diseases were used for the treatment of COVID-19.
