Biotechnology and Synthetic Biology

Biotechnology is a broad field of biology that uses biological systems and organisms to develop or manufacture products. Some tools and applications often overlap with related scientific disciplines. From the late 20th century to the early 21st century, biotechnology expanded to include new and diverse sciences such as genomics, recombinant genetic engineering, applied immunology, drug therapy and the development of diagnostic tests. The term biotechnology, first used by Karl Ereky in 1919, refers to the production of products from raw materials with the help of living organisms.

Synthetic Biology is an interdisciplinary field of study aimed at creating new biological components, devices and systems, and redesigning systems that already occur in nature. This includes a wide range of techniques in various fields such as biotechnology, genetic engineering, molecular biology, molecular engineering, system biology, membrane science, biophysics, chemistry and bioengineering, electrical and computer engineering, control engineering, etc. It is a field of science and evolutionary biology.  Due to its stronger genetic engineering capabilities and the low cost of DNA synthesis and sequencing, the field of synthetic biology is growing rapidly.
