Document Summary
Proteins that break down other proteins (e. g. used in cleaning products). A set of tools that utilize living things (and more recently, derivatives of living things) to solve problems or to produce products. Karl ereky who had a a large-scale production of pigs using sugar beets as a source of food. Involves manipulation of microorganisms such as yeast and bacteria to: More e cient decontamination processes for industrial waste product removal. Produce large amounts of important molecules used in nutrition and medicine. Genetically engineered plants resistant to pests and herbicides. Animals as a source of medically valuable proteins (e. g. production of antibodies) Inclusion or exclusion of a person from suspicion. Tracking and con rmation of the spread of disease. Microorganisms for bioremediation to consume and break down environmental pollutants. Green technology for decontamination (i. e. plants that take up toxins) Aquaculture raising n sh or shell sh in controlled conditions for use as food sources.
