Biotechnology is the broad area of biology
involving living systems and organisms to develop or make products.
Environmental Biotechnology is a rapidly developing, increasingly important
branch of science that has implications for both the prevention and clean-up of
pollution in different strata of the environment. The contents of this notes
include : Preface – Importance of the Training program, Basics of Molecular
Biology & Biotechnology, Applications of Biotechnology to Control Environmental
Pollution, Addressing Pesticide Pollution through Bioremediation Technology,
Solid Waste management, Cutting edge technologies for the sustainable management
of wastewater The New Faces of Diatoms: Source for new age nanotechnology
application, Oilzapper and Oilivorous-S, Biofuels – Importance, Potential and
Present Status.

This book presents an introductory overview of
Actinobacteria with three main divisions: taxonomic principles, bioprospecting,
and agriculture and industrial utility, which covers isolation, cultivation
methods, and identification of Actinobacteria and production and
biotechnological potential of antibacterial compounds and enzymes from
Actinobacteria. This book will be beneficial for the graduate students,
teachers, researchers, biotechnologists, and other professionals, who are
interested to fortify and expand their knowledge about Actinobacteria in the
field of Microbiology, Biotechnology, Biomedical Science, Plant Science,
Agriculture, Plant pathology, Environmental Science, etc.
The purpose of this report is to create greater awareness of the
opportunities to reduce hunger and improve nutrition in developing countries
through the application of biotechnology to widely practiced methods of food
preparation and preservation.
