Biomanufacturing. Biomanufacturing is a type of manufacturing or biotechnology that utilizes biological systems to produce commercially important biomaterials and biomolecules for use in medicines, food and beverage processing, and industrial applications. Biomanufacturing products are recovered from natural sources, such as blood, or from ...
Cell therapy bioprocessing is a discipline that bridges the fields of cell therapyand bioprocessing(i.e., biopharmaceutical manufacturing), and is a sub-field of bioprocess engineering. The goals of cell therapy bioprocessing are to establish reproducible and robust manufacturing processes for the production of therapeutic cells.
Regenerative medicine. A colony of human embryonic stem cells. Regenerative medicine deals with the "process of replacing, engineering or regenerating human or animal cells, tissues or organs to restore or establish normal function". [ 1 ] This field holds the promise of engineering damaged tissues and organs by stimulating the body's own ...
Biomass (in the context of energy generation) is matter from recently living (but now dead) organisms which is used for bioenergy production. There are variations in how such biomass for energy is defined, e.g. only from plants, [ 8 ] or from plants and algae, [ 9 ] or from plants and animals. [ 10 ] The vast majority of biomass used for ...
A bio-based material is a material intentionally made, either wholly or partially, from substances derived from living (or once-living) organisms, [ 1 ] such as plants, animals, enzymes, and microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi and yeast. [ 2 ][ 3 ] Due to their main characteristics of being renewable and to their ability to store carbon ...
Biomolecular engineering is the application of engineering principles and practices to the purposeful manipulation of molecules of biological origin. Biomolecular engineers integrate knowledge of biological processes with the core knowledge of chemical engineering in order to focus on molecular level solutions to issues and problems in the life sciences related to the environment, agriculture ...
Bioproducts engineering or bioprocess engineering refers to engineering of bio-products from renewable bioresources.This pertains to the design and development of processes and technologies for the sustainable manufacture of bioproducts (materials, chemicals and energy) from renewable biological resources.
Cell engineering is the purposeful process of adding, deleting, or modifying genetic sequences in living cells to achieve biological engineering goals such as altering cell production, changing cell growth and proliferation requirements, adding or removing cell functions, and many more. Cell engineering often makes use of recombinant DNA ...
