What is biotechnology?

The oldest form of biotechnology is bioprocessing technology; this technology uses the living cells or molecular components of manufacturing machinery to give us the results we desire. Simple one-celled organisms such as yeast and bacteria are the ones which are more commonly used with the bio molecular components usually being used are enzymes, which are proteins which catalyze biochemical reactions.

Microbial fermentation which is one form of Bioprocessing that has been around albeit unwittingly, for thousands of years, we have used it do brew beer, make wine, leaven bread and to pickle foods.

It wasn’t until around the middle of the 1800`s that we realised biochemical machinery was responsible for these products and we began to expand greatly the exploitation of microbial fermentation to give us even more useful products.
