Briefly describe the development trend of modern biotechnology

Nowadays, biotechnology is developing more and more rapidly, and since the elucidation of the double-helix structure of DNA in 1953, the rapid development of biotechnology has been witnessed by all ****.

First of all, at the microscopic level, the improvement and innovation of nucleic acids and proteins are being carried out in an organized manner. China synthesized bovine insulin in 1965, which was the first time mankind artificially synthesized a biological macromolecule, and made an indelible contribution to the subsequent development of biotechnology.

Secondly, at the macro level, various genetically modified products have also been introduced, writing a brilliant page for the better life of mankind.

Today, biotechnology has an outstanding development trend on these foundations.

First, the advanced technology, the 21st century has its own characteristics, more intelligent, simplified the previous biotechnology requires cumbersome operation of some details, such as PCR technology, protein sequence analyzers, and DNA sequencing technology, which is now quite mature, which have brought great convenience to our biotechnology. You can synthesize the nucleic acids you want according to your own wishes, and you can test the results of your experiments quickly.

Secondly, there is a lot of competitive pressure. Now the development of biotechnology can be comparable to the development of information technology, but the difference is that the introduction of computers came quietly, the reason why Microsoft can now monopolize more than ninety percent of the desktop office is because she can be noticed before anyone else in the development of information technology prospects. However, biotechnology is different, various biochemical laboratories, various universities are carrying out related research, China has also listed the transgenic engineering as a major scientific research project, you can imagine how fierce the competition.

Third, cost. Deng Xiaoping said that science and technology is the first productive force, but he also knew that it takes money to turn science and technology into productive forces. A small box of reagent kits can easily be thousands or even tens of thousands, which is a major obstacle to limit the development of biotechnology. In our country, all the reagents for research are imported, and the domestic ones are either of poor quality, or not pure enough or not well designed.

So, now the development of biotechnology is still mainly in the field of research and the development of reagents, the prospect is boundless ah!

Thanks!
