Modern biological science
Development of biotechnology can be divided into three distinct stages: the traditional biotechnology, modern biotechnology, modern biotechnology. Technical characteristics of traditional biotechnology brewing technology, the technical features of modern biotechnology is the microbial fermentation technology, the technical characteristics of modern biotechnology to genetic engineering is the primary sign. This said, biotechnology, modern biotechnology is also be known as biological engineering. Modern biotechnology in the 70's meteoric rise, nearly two decades to develop very rapidly. It microelectronics, new materials and new energy technologies tied to affect the future of science and technology of the four pillars of national economy and is considered the 21st century knowledge economy, the core of the world. Biotechnology wide range of applications, including pharmaceuticals, food, light industry, agriculture and animal husbandry fisheries, energy, chemical industry, metallurgy industry, environmental protection and other aspects. Medical and health areas in which modern biotechnology is first mounted the stage, is currently the most widely used, the effectiveness of the most significant and fastest growing, the biggest potential for an area. Biotechnology applications in the field of medical and health mainly in the following three aspects: 1, is solved in the past can not be produced by conventional methods or production cost of expensive drugs in particular the production of technical problems, developed a large number of new potent drugs, such as insulin, interferon (IFN), interleukin -2 (IL- 2), tissue blood plasminogen activator (TPA), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), colony stimulating factor (CSF), human growth hormone (HGH), epidermal growth factor (EGF), etc., these drugs can be separately for the prevention and treatment, such as cancer, cardiovascular pulmonary vascular, hereditary, immune, endocrine and other serious threats to human health, incurable diseases, but also in terms of avoiding side effects than conventional medicines. 2, is to develop a number of high sensitivity and specificity performance, practical clinical diagnosis of new equipment, such as in vitro diagnostic reagents, immunoassay kits, etc., and found some of the difficult cases in the pathogenesis and treatment of the new method. Monoclonal antibody diagnostic reagents of a good market prospect. 3, is a genetically engineered vaccine, successful development of vaccine production until the large-scale invasion of the human resistance to infectious diseases, prenatal and postnatal care to ensure that the entire group showed a bright future. Our focus is the development of hepatitis B gene vaccine. Modern biotechnology to renewable biological resources as raw materials to produce biological medicines, and thus difficult to obtain a sufficient number of the past for clinical research and treatment. If 1 g of insulin (h-Insulin) from 7.5 kg of fresh pig or cow pancreas tissue extracted, and the world's 6,000 million people with diabetes, about 1 g of insulin per person per year, this amounts to a 4.5 billion from kg of fresh pancreas extract, which is actually impossible, but biotechnology is very easy to solve this problem, the use of genetic engineering, "engineering strain" produced 1 g of insulin, only 20 liters fermentation broth, its value is can not use the money to be calculated.

Development of Biological Sciences
The ancient people gatherers, hunting and fishing and agricultural production in the process of gradually accumulated knowledge of plants and animals; in the fight against the disease process, and gradually accumulated medical knowledge. Overall, in the 19th century, biological sciences major is the study of the morphology, structure and classification, accumulated a large amount of factual information. Into the 19th century, science and technology has improved continuously, create a more sophisticated microscopes to promote comprehensive development of biology, specifically in looking for the intrinsic link between the phenomenon of life, and factual information on the accumulated theoretical generalization made in the cytology, paleontology, comparative anatomy, comparative embryology have made such progress. 19th century, 30 years, the German botanist and zoologist Tang Shi Shi to Wang proposed cell theory, that all animal and plant cells are the basic unit of structure for the study of biological structure, physiology, such as reproductive and developmental basis. 1859 British biologist Charles Darwin (1809-1882) published the "Origin of Species", which scientifically explained by natural _select_ion theory of biological evolution theory as the center, which is the great human achievements of biological knowledge, God created and species of the same on a heavy blow, in promoting the development of modern biology has played a huge role. Throughout the 20th century, before the description of the biological sciences research is based, and thus can be a description of the biological stage. In the late 19th century, the natural sciences of physics, led made great achievements. Physical and chemical experimental methods and results are gradually introduced to the field of biology. By 1900, with the Mendel (1822-1884) discovered the laws of inheritance was reintroduced into the second phase of biology - Experimental Biology phase. At this stage, the biologists to use experimental methods and more physical and chemical techniques to study life processes, the biochemistry, genetics and other branches of cells continue to emerge, so that gradually focused on the analysis of biological research activities, the basic rules of life come . 30 years since the 20th century, the main objective of biological research increasingly focused on the nature of life is closely related with the biological molecules - proteins and nucleic acids, and in 1944, American biologist Effie in the experiment with the bacterial material, the first proof the DNA is the genetic material, 1953, U.S. scientists and British scientists Creek Watson co-sponsored a double helix model of DNA molecule, which is the 20th century, the greatest achievements of Biological Sciences, marking the development of biological sciences into a new stage - stage of molecular biology. In molecular biology, led by the many branches of biological science are the rapid development of the series of epoch-making has made tremendous achievements of contemporary science to life the most and the results of one of the most attractive subject.
