Description
Medical Biotechnology is designed to serve as a textbook for undergraduate students of biotechnology. The book seeks to impart a complete understanding of the fundamental concepts of and techniques used in medical biotechnology.
Medical biotechnology is a multidisciplinary subject that brings together the combined research and applications from the fields of rDNA technology, microbiology, and medicine. The book starts with a brief overview of biotechnology and healthcare. It then goes on to describe various therapeutical techniques 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 the management and analysis of clinical data, various processes involving biomolecules, and the use of software 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 and free from technical jargon.
