La importancia de la biotecnología en las ciencias de la salud: una revisión

Palabras clave: Biotecnología, salud, alimentación, ambiente

Resumen

La biotecnología es un campo interdisciplinario, en el que, se utilizan diversas metodologías y herramientas enfocados en la transformación de organismos vivos o sustancias derivadas de dichos organismos que pueden ser dirigidos a alguna problemática específica.

Por una parte la biotecnología puede ayudar a introducir características fenotípicas y genotípicas en los cultivos, lo que permiten la producción de alimentos enriquecidos con nutrientes pudiendo ayudar a la diminución de la desnutrición en la población susceptible, además de involucrar las bases biotecnologías en la generación de técnicas de pronóstico y diagnostico tanto en enfermedades no transmitibles, como en enfermedades en los que se encuentran involucrados algún agente infeccioso, ya sea que hablemos de generación de proteínas recombinantes, vacunas y técnicas de diagnóstico molecular, que resumido podemos hablar de la estabilidad y/o recuperación de la salud de la población.

Otro campo importante de la biotecnología es el uso de microorganismos y la biorremedación de suelos, agua, residuos, etc.

Por lo que, en este manuscrito presenta una revisión sobre los aportes de la biotecnología en el campo de las ciencias de la salud, mediante el desarrollo de herramientas de cultivos modificados genéticamente enriquecidos nutricionalmente, diagnóstico molecular, vacunas, y gestión de desechos.
