This new volume covers some of the most important and latest research trends and applications in modern biotechnology, with special attention on how modern biotechnology advances human healthcare. These ground-breaking technologies hold tremendous potential in the development of new tools and techniques that can in turn be used in the synthesis and production of novel biological entities with a potential to improve disease diagnostics in general and healthcare facilities in particular.
The chapters in the book explore
- microRNAs as next-generation therapeutic and diagnostic agents
- applications of CRISPR-Cas-based diagnostics
- CRISPR-Cas as a genome-editing tool
- engineered gut microbiomes for treating diseases
- antibiotics and plant-derived antimicrobials for healthcare
- stem cell technology and regenerative medicine
- and more
Taking multidisciplinary perspective on these state-of-the-art biotechnologies, this volume provides a valuable overview for professionals, researchers, faculty, and students in many areas of biotechnology, medical science, and other health related areas.
