Description Progress in the applications of biotechnology depends on a wide base of basic as well as applied sciences. The output of biotechnology
has already proved itself in many different fields, from health to biomining, and from agriculture to enzyme "breeding".
The objectives
of the Biotechnology Annual Review series is to provide readers with the needed in-depth knowledge by reviewing specific topics
in each volume. In this way, it is easier for scientists to keep in touch with progress and applications in biotechnology.
Up-to-date
topics are reviewed that are related to regulatory affairs, social impact, biodiversity and patent issues, as well as production and
technology.
