Modern Biotechnology in Healthcare Advances and Applications PDF

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.
