Difference between Biotech and Genetic Engineering

Will you please share with me the difference between Biotech and Genetic Engineering as it is very urgent for me?

[Raman Vij]

As you want to get the details of difference between Biotech and Genetic Engineering so here it is for you:

Genetics is the study of DNA and heredity.

It is focused on the genetic make-up of an organism which is influence by the introduction or eradication of particular genes.

Biotechnology is associated with biology.

It is concerned with making use of living organisms and their components to make goods and is applied in the fields of medicine, business and agriculture.

Biotechnology is the procedure of gene manipulation while Genetic engineering is the method of the isolation, identification and cloning of DNA.

I want to do B. Tech but I am confused in Biotech and Genetic Engineering stream so for that will you please give me any suggestion that which stream is good ?

[Quick Sam]

As you want to do B. Tech but you are confused in Biotech and Genetic Engineering stream so for that you want to get suggestion so here I am giving you same information.

Both streams are good at their places so you should choose that stream in which you have interest.

Biotechnology is a field of applied biology that involves the use of living organisms and bioprocesses in engineering, technology, medicine and other fields requiring bio-products.

Genetic engineering, also called genetic modification, is the direct human manipulation of an organism's genome using modern DNA technology.
