Definitions
Biotechnology
- Traditionally, implies the use or development of
methods of direct genetic manipulation for a
socially desirable product.
- Broadly, Commercial techniques that use
living organisms, or substances from thoseorganism, to make or modify a product
(Congress of the United States, 1984)

Fermentation
- Traditionally, defined as the process for the
production of alcohol or lactic acid from glucose.
- Broadly, defined as an enzymatically controlled
transformation of organic compound (Websters

Biochemical Engineering History
5000 to 10,000 BC: yogurt, cheese and soy products,wine and beer.
In early 20th century: pure bakers yeast were being
produced in tanks and sold.
In world war I: fermentation was used to producechemicals needed for war.
World War II: antibiotics production became on thecommercial scale.
1970s: recombinant DNA technology

Regulation and organization
In pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry,
Primary concern: to produce a product of consistentlyhigh quality in amounts to satisfy the medical needs of
the population. Secondary concern: to reduce the manufacturing cost.
A future biochemical engineer needs to understand the
regulatory climate in which many bioprocess engineerswork.
