problems
Is biotechnology a new science?
• Gene cloning/ genetic manipulation – modern
day techniques; BUT
• Many applications represent old practices with
new methodologies.
• Microorganisms have been used in fermentation
of bread, cheeses, yogurts, alcoholic beverages.
Fermentation
alcohol
Bread
• During fermentation- yeast decompose sugar
to derive energy
• Produce ethanol as waste
• Yeast is added to make dough rise
• Yeast ferments sugar releasing CO2 – dough
rise and creates holes
• Alcohol produced- evaporated when baked
Yeast for baking, wine & beers
Sumerian tablet recipe for beer 3200 BC
Ancient Egyptians diet included bread & beer
Chinese use of fermentation
using beneficial bacteria to flavor and preserve food.
Aztecs make cakes from Spirulina algae.

Selective breeding
• To improve production of crops
and livestock = food
• Organisms with desirable features
are purposely mated to produce
offspring with the same desirable
traits.
• Choosing organisms with useful
genes and taking advantage of
their genetic potential for human
benefit.
Antibiotics
• Alexander Fleming
discovered Penicillium
mold inhibit the growth of
bacterium Staphylococcus
aureus (causes skin
disease).
• Use to treat bacterial
infections in humans.
Birth of modern biotechnology
• Since 1960s, rapid development and
understanding in genetics and molecular biology
– led to new applications and innovations in
biotechnology.
• Gene cloning- ability to identify and reproduce
gene of interest
• Genetic engineering- manipulating the DNA of
an organism – recombinant DNA technology.

Historical development of
Biotechnology
Prehistoric attempts by ancient ancestors to manipulate
genetic composition of useful species.
Domestication of animals and
cultivation of plants
Artificial selection of genetic variation
or selective breeding
Evidence since 8000-1000BC
Eg maize, rice, wheat, palms, dogs,
horses, camels ,oxens
Herbs for medicine
ancient vaccines
Cumin seeds have a
distinctive bitter flavor and
strong, warm aroma due to
their abundant essential oil
content. Their smell can also
be detected in the eater's
sweat even after consuming
only small amounts. It is
used as an ingredient of curry
powder. In herbal medicine,
cumin is classified as
stimulant, carminative, and
antimicrobial
Saffron- stigmas of the flower
Crocus sativus
Tumeric
And the ancient Chinese first inoculated people with a weakened strain of the smallpox (variola) virus to prevent
further infection
1850-1900
birth of modern genetics
Charles Darwin
Origin of species
1850
Natural selection. How does the
1859
variation that drives evolution get
transmitted? If Darwin had considered
Mendel's work he would have an available
answer. Darwin did receive Mendel's paper
but was unread (unopened).

Gregor Johann Mendel
father of classical genetics
Heinzendorf Central Europe
Augustinian monk
1856
Developed the theory of inheritance
Demonstrated with statistical data from crossing Pisum sativum
Suggested that every cell contained pairs of ‘factors’ and that each pair
determine specific traits (law of segregation)
Unappreciated (due to lack of understanding in cell structure and cell
division), but rediscovered 1900
Experiments in plant hybridization
Chromosomal theory of inheritance
Chromosomes discovered in early 20th century
Epigenetic interpretation was further established
Inherited traits are controlled by genes
They reside in chromosomes
These traits are faithfully transmitted through
gametes (reproductive cell) to future individuals
in the next generation

Microbial Biotechnology
• Microbial Biotechnology – manipulation of
microorganisms such as yeast and bacteria
▫ Create better enzymes
▫ More efficient decontamination processes for
industrial waste product removal
▫ Used to clone and produce large amounts of
important proteins used in human medicine
Aspergillus niger
Saccharomyces cerevisae
Agriculture
• Agricultural Biotechnology
▫ Genetically engineered, pest-resistant plants,
drought resistance, cold-tolerant.
▫ Foods with higher protein or vitamin content
▫ Drugs developed and grown as plant productsmolecular pharming (tobacco is a non food cropto produce recombinant proteins in their leaves)
Animal
• Animal Biotechnology
▫ Animals as a source of medically valuable
proteins
 Antibodies (treatment for patients with immunity
disorder)
 Transgenic animal: secreted therapeutic proteins
in their milk. Produced in large scale.
▫ Animals as important models in basic research
 Gene “knockout” experiments ( 1 or more genes are
disrupted- to study the function of a gene)
 Design and testing of drugs and genetic therapies
▫ Animal cloning
 Source of transplant organs
1. Cloning requires an egg cell, and an
adult donor cell. The (unwanted)
chromosomes are removed from the
egg cell and discarded. The nucleus,
containing the DNA to be cloned, is
removed from the donor cell.
2. The donor nucleus is inserted into
the empty egg cell, a process called
somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT).
Afterwards the egg contains a full
(adult) set of chromosomes as if it
had been fertilised normally.
3. A pulse of electricity, or a chemical
'shock', kick-starts the development
process, and the embryo begins to
grow.
4. Cell division begins. The
subsequent development of the
embryo depends upon how
successfully the donor nucleus has
're-programmed' the egg.
Forensic
• Forensic Biotechnology
▫ DNA fingerprinting- method for detecting an
organism’s unique DNA pattern
 Inclusion or exclusion of a person from suspicion
based on DNA evidence
 Paternity cases
 Identification of human remains
 Endangered species
 Tracking and confirmation of the spread of disease
ie E. coli, AIDS, meningitis etc.
Bioremediation
• Bioremediation
▫ The use of biotechnology to process and degrade
a variety of natural and manmade substances
 Particularly those that contribute to pollution
▫ For example, bacteria that degrade components
in crude oil
 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska
Aquatic
• Aquatic Biotechnology
▫ Aquaculture – raising finfish or shellfish in controlled conditions
for use as food sources
 30% of all fish consumed by humans worldwide
▫ Genetic engineering
 Disease-resistant strains of oysters
 Vaccines against viruses that infect salmon and
other finfish
▫ Rich and valuable sources of new genes, proteins and metabolic
processes with important applications for
human benefits
 Marine plankton and snails found to be rich sources of
antitumor and anticancer molecules
Medical
• Medical Biotechnology
▫ Involved with the whole spectrum of human
medicine
 Preventive medicine
 Diagnosis of health and illness
 Treatment of human diseases
▫ New information from Human Genome Project
 Gene therapy
▫ Stem cell technologies
Medical
• Medical Biotechnology
Regulatory
• Regulatory Biotechnology
▫ Quality Assurance (QA)
 All activities involved in regulating the final quality
of
a product
