Abstract

Biotechnology is an important and wide field that deals with the use of living organisms to develop products beneficial for sustainable development. Biotechnology devices and procedures provide new avenues for researches to develop products and technologies that could help in improving the quality of human life on earth (Yang P., 2021). The aim: This study is to have an overview of major Biotechnology applications in the field of medicine. Material & Methods: Recently literature and scientific researches. This descriptive study highlights a brief review of various applications of medical biotechnology. Results & Conclusions: In the field of medicine, there are a variety of biotechnology applications2. Some of them include the following: Molecular diagnosis, Gene therapy, Recombinant insulin, Pharmacogenomics, Vaccines (Shastry BS. 2006; Yang P., 2021). Medical biotechnology is the use of living cells and cell materials to research and produce pharmaceutical and diagnostic products that help treat and prevent human diseases for e.g., autoimmune disease, cancer and infectious diseases as malaria, tuberculosis, AIDS, etc. (Prajapat & Jain 2022).
