The term Biotec hnology was coined by
karl Ereky a Hungarian engineer in 1919. This term is derived from a fusion of
Biology and Technology Biotechnology is not a pure science but an integrated
affect of these two areas, the root of which lies in biological sciences.The
contents of this notes are as follows : Biotechnology, Definitions, Major
concepts and importance, International organizations involved in biotechnology,
Biotechnology in India.
