Bio bio thermo Flashcards
System size classifications
Molecular (biofluids in solvents)
Cellular/metabolism (Solutions. and solid systems including living cells or bac)
Technical systems/live cultures (continuously stirred tank reactor)
Biotech types
Red biotechnology: Medical applications of substances and processes related to living organisms
White biotechnology: Industrial-sized biocatalytic processes
Yellow biotechnology: Design and production of pharmaceutical
molecules
Blue biotechnology: Seawater-based micro-organisms as chemical
reactors, extremophiles (high/low temperatures and/or pressures),
nonphototrophic organisms like deep-sea bacteria, etc.
Green biotechnology: Use of plants and their transgene variations for production of biofuels in biorefineries
