For several thousand years, biotechnology and its associated technical processes have had a great impact on the development of mankind. Based on empirical methods, in particular for the production of foodstuffs and daily commodities, these disciplines have become one of the most innovative future issues. Due to the increasing detailed understanding of cellular processes, production strains can now be optimized. In combination with modern bioprocesses, a variety of bulk and fine chemicals as well as pharmaceuticals can be produced efficiently. In this article, some of the current trends in biotechnology are discussed.
For thousands of years, biotechnology has been a cornerstone of human civilization and is destined to be a key technology of the 21th century with a great economic potential from everyday objects through to fine chemicals. Among latest concepts of the biorefinery, biofilm as well as microreactor techniques, and the synthetic biology are presented.
