Description: Current Developments in Biotechnology and Bioengineering Human and Animal Health Applications This book provides up-to-date information, data, and knowledge on the modern applications of biotechnology in human and animal health Vanete Thomaz Soccol (Edited by), Ashok Pandey (Edited by), Rodrigo R. Resende (Edited by) 9780444636607 Hardback, published 15 September 2016 680 pages 23.5 x 19 x 3.6 cm, 1.12 kg Current Developments in Biotechnology and Bioengineering: Human and Animal Health Applications provides extensive coverage of new developments, state-of-the-art technologies, and potential future trends, presenting data-based scientific knowledge and information on medical biotechnological interventions for human and animal health. Drawing on the key development areas in this field, the book reviews biotechnological advances and applications in immunotechnology, vaccines and vaccinology, combinatorial libraries, gene and cell therapy, tissue engineering, and parasite and infectious disease diagnostics. This title outlines why biotechnological techniques in these areas are useful in a clinical context and considers their potential uses, limitations, and the ethical considerations surrounding their use.
