Biotechnology

Overview

Biotechnology includes those technological applications that use biological systems, living organisms or derivatives thereof, to make or modify products or processes for specific use.

Our expertise in biotechnology includes, among others:

  • diagnostic tools and methods,
  • methods and tools for molecular screening,
  • genetics, genomics and proteomics,
  • industrial biotechnology including bioprocessing, biomaterials, biofuels, and enzymes for industrial applications,
  • biological pesticides and insecticides,
  • cell and tissue engineering, and
  • bioinformatics tools.
