"In the recent past, biotechnology has emerged as an important tool especially in the economic sectors of agriculture, livestock management, human health care and pharmaceutical industries, and for solving environmental and societal issues. As a result, many universities now offer various programmes in biotechnology and related fields. Molecular Biotechnology : Principles and Practices is intended as a student and teacher friendly textbook aimed at providing undergraduate and postgraduate students with a strong base in this emerging and highly promising interdisciplinary science. It strikes a balance between two important aspects of the science--the theory of molecular biology and the experimental approach to the study of biological processes. The main feature of this book is its coverage of a wide range of molecular techniques in biotechnology. Each technique is described conceptually, followed by a detailed experimental account of the steps involved. The topics covered include: Scope of biotechnology. Advanced techniques used in molecular biology and genetics. Gene cloning technology and its applications. Genetic engineering and how it revolutionized biotechnology. Commercial potential of tissue culture technology. Social, economic, and legal issues.".…
