Biotechnology and Its Applications

Biofertilizers are substances of biological origin. They contain microorganisms that enhance the fertility of the soil and increase the growth of plants. Biofertilizers include blue-green algae, bacteria and even mycorrhizal fungi. There are certain strains of microorganisms, including algae, fungi and bacteria, that make the main composition of the biofertilizers. They are classified into different […]

Primary metabolites are the initial end products created by a live organism as a result of growth. Secondary metabolites are metabolites that aid in the performance of various biological tasks that are not engaged in the growth and maintenance of cellular activity. The key distinction between primary and secondary metabolites is that primary metabolites are

Pathogens, which include bacteria, fungi, protozoa, worms, viruses, and even infectious proteins known as prions, cause infectious diseases. All viruses must have a way of entering their hosts and avoiding immune system eradication. The majority of microorganisms are not harmful. Now, if we talk about parasites, they first evolved long before humans did, and early

Bacteriophages are bacteria-infecting viruses, and certain bacteriophages have been studied extensively in the lab (making them some of the viruses we understand best). In this article, we’ll look at two different ways bacteriophages can infect their bacterial hosts: A phage infects a bacteria, then hijacks it to produce a vast number of phages before killing

Many scientific disciplines appear to share some common ideas. However, there are many significant differences between biology and biotechnology as subjects. Biology is the study of living beings, whereas biotechnology is a related branch of biology that deals with living organisms in order to develop various products for humans. To put it another way, biology

Apoenzymes, the inactive form of enzymes, can still bind substrate with the same affinity as holoenzymes, but they cannot convert substrate to product When substrate binds to apoenzyme, it may cause a conformational change that can be identified via fluorescence measurements.The ARIS method is insufficiently sensitive to detect digoxin, which is found in serum at

Antiseptics stop germs (microorganisms) from growing and reproducing in living tissues, preventing disease. They differ from antibiotics and antiviral drugs, which work within the body, and disinfectants, which are antimicrobial chemicals applied to non-living items’ surfaces. Antibiotics are substances produced by one microbe to kill or limit the growth of some other bacterium. Bacterial infections

The Diagnosis of Ringworm of the body tinea corporis is a fungus that creates a rash. The rash is usually unpleasant and circular, with clearer skin. Ringworm gets its name from its appearance. There is no worm present. Ringworm is linked to athlete’s foot tinea pedis, jock itch tinea cruris, and scalp ringworm. Ringworm is commonly disseminated

Because explant sources might cause tissue injury and interfere with regeneration, sterile procedures are essential for plant materials that will be used directly. Culture of Seeds to create sterile seedlings is the best solution in that case. It takes a long time to clone orchids in vivo. Seeds can therefore be germinated in vitro and vegetatively cultivated

Many challenges had to be addressed before in vitro organ cultivation could be accomplished satisfactorily. A medium must be perfused through a Culture of Organs under pulsatile pressure. The medium, as well as the organ, must be kept sterile. The fluid must be maintained properly oxygenated and free of particles, and temperature, osmotic pressure, pH, and maximum
