Q1

What is the scope of biotechnology covered in this book?

A1

The book covers medical, agricultural, industrial, and environmental biotechnology, including genetic engineering, tissue culture, biofertilizers, biopesticides, bioenergy, and IPR.
Q2

Which cloning vectors are explained in this textbook?

A2

It explains plasmids, bacteriophages, cosmids, phagemids, YACs (Yeast Artificial Chromosomes), and BACs (Bacterial Artificial Chromosomes) for DNA cloning.
Q3

How does the book explain cutting and joining of DNA?

A3

It describes restriction endonucleases for cutting DNA at specific sites and DNA ligase for joining DNA fragments, forming recombinant DNA.
Q4

What are genomics and proteomics as per Dr. Dubey?

A4

Genomics is study of entire genome structure and function. Proteomics studies complete set of proteins expressed by a genome.
Q5

Does this book cover transgenic animals?

A5

Yes, it discusses manipulation of reproduction, methods to create transgenic animals, and their applications in medicine and agriculture.
Q6

What is cryopreservation in biotechnology?

A6

Cryopreservation is preservation of cells, tissues, or organs at ultra-low temperatures (-196°C in liquid nitrogen) for long-term storage without damage.
Q7

How is single cell protein (SCP) produced?

A7

SCP is produced by growing microorganisms like algae, yeast, or bacteria on waste substrates, harvested as protein-rich biomass for feed.
Q8

What is biological nitrogen fixation?

A8

It is conversion of atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia by symbiotic (Rhizobium) or free-living (Azotobacter) bacteria, crucial for soil fertility.
Q9

Name two biopesticides explained in this book.

A9

It explains Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) for caterpillar control and Trichoderma fungus for biological control of plant pathogens.
Q10

How does environmental biotechnology help pollution control?

A10

It uses microbes for bioremediation of oil spills, heavy metals, and industrial wastes, and treatment of sewage and xenobiotics.
