Food Biotechnology and Processing represent a dynamic field that integrates biology, chemistry, and engineering principles to enhance the safety, quality, and nutritional value of food products. Through genetic modification, food biotechnology aims to optimize crops for improved yield, resistance to pests, and nutritional content. Biotechnological tools enable the development of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) with specific traits, contributing to sustainable agriculture and food security.
In food processing, biotechnology plays a crucial role in techniques like fermentation, enzymatic conversions, and microbial cultures. These processes enhance the flavour, texture, and nutritional profile of various food products. Additionally, biotechnology facilitates the production of functional foods with health-promoting benefits. Advancements in food biotechnology contribute to addressing global challenges, such as feeding a growing population, reducing food waste, and creating healthier food options. The field continually evolves to embrace innovative technologies, ensuring the safety and sustainability of the food supply chain also these include foods enriched with probiotics, prebiotics, or bioactive compounds, promoting overall well-being and preventing diseases.
