Biotechnology aim to elucidate the process we know as life, understand life processes, learn how organisms function. Life is mechanistically a chemical process, so everything in biology is due to events governed by the laws of chemistry. Study the chemistry of living organisms, chemical basis of life and insight into the chemistry and physiology of living systems at molecular level and their transformation in the biological system, is therefore of great medical importance. No field of science has seen a vast expansion and exploration techniques as has been encountered in the field of Biochemistry. There is little doubt that Biochemistry is the most diversified of all the natural sciences, exhibiting a bewildering array of sub-disciplines and paving the path for growing of newer off-shoot specialities like Molecular Biology, Molecular Cell Biology, Immunology, Molecular Genetics, Medicinal Chemistry, Pharmacology, Clinical Sciences, Food Sciences and of course Biotechnology & Nanotechnology. In every sphere of life Biochemistry is forming an important CORE around which Life Sciences are revolving. It may rightly be regarded as a major offshoot of Biochemistry with foundations in many fields including microbiology, molecular biology, genetics, chemistry, biophysics, chemical & biochemical engineering. In recent decades a characteristics feature of development of science & technology has been increasing resort to multidisciplinary strategies for the solution of various problems. This has led to the emergence of the new interdisciplinary area of study, with the eventual crystallization of new disciplines and identifiable characteristics, concepts and methodologies. Chemical Engineering, Microbiology & Biochemistry are the three well rocognized pillars that have done much to the development of Biotechnology. This enables the series of technologies involving the practical applications of organisms or their cellular components in manufacturing, service industry and environmental sciences encompassing the wide range of new products including antibiotics, vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, transgenic plants and animals, gene therapy agents. The water and land management and also remediating the pollution generated by over industrialization is taken care by biotechnological and biochemical approaches. The biochemist and biotechnologist go hand in hand with the common approach to a problem except their scale of operation priori.....!!!!!
