The document outlines the different areas of biotechnology, including: Red biotechnology which involves medical processes like producing new drugs and regenerating tissues. Green biotechnology combines natural resources and biodiversity to sustain agriculture. Blue biotechnology transforms marine resources into goods and services using microorganisms and algae. The document also discusses yellow, brown, dark, purple, white, gold biotechnologies which relate to food production, desert management, bioweapons, intellectual property, industrial processes, and bioinformatics respectively.

1. THE AREAS OF BIOTECHNOLOGY
BY: Tricia Mari R. Legaspi

2. RED BIOTECHNOLOGY
•Medical, pharmaceutical, and diagnostics
•Involves medical processes, such as using
organisms to produce new drugs and stem
cells to regenerate damaged human tissues
and grow and regrow entire organs.

3. GREEN BIOTECHNOLOGY
•Agricultural Biotechnology
•The combination of practices that utilize
natural resources and biodiversity. wealth
to sustain agriculture and quality
production.

4. BLUE BIOTECHNOLOGY
•Marine Biotechnology
•are processes that transform marine
resources into services and goods in a
multitude of fields. This includes micro-
organisms (microalgae, bacteria and fungi),
algae and invertebrates (e.g. starfish, sea
cucumbers, sea urchins).

5. YELLOW BIOTECHNOLOGY
•Food production, nutrition science
• Is related to the technology of food
production, e.g., in making cheese, wine,
and beer by fermentation.

6. BROWN BIOTECHNOLOGY
• Desert biotechnology
• Related to the management of arid lands and
deserts. One application is the creation of
enhanced seeds that resist extreme
environmental conditions of arid regions, which
is related to the innovation, creation of
agriculture techniques and management of
resources.

7. DARK BIOTECHNOLOGY
• Bioterrorism, biowarfare, bioweapons
• associated with bioterrorism or biological
weapons and biowarfare which uses
microorganisms, and toxins to cause diseases
and death in humans, livestock and crops.

8. PURLE BIOTECHNOLOGY
• Patents, publication, and intellectual property
• Purple biotech is the legal branch that
encompasses patents, publications, and intellectual
property. While all other branches of biotech work
toward the development and production of new
technologies, purple biotech is the branch that
maintains and files each invention and patent.

9. WHITE BIOTECHNOLOGY
• Industrial biotechnology
• It uses living cells—from yeast, moulds, bacteria
and plants—and enzymes to synthesize products
that are easily degradable, require less energy
and create less waste during their production.

10. GOLD BIOTECHNOLOGY
•Bioinformatics,
nanobiotechnology
•An interdisciplinary field that
addresses biological problems
using computational
techniques, and makes the
rapid organization as well as
analysis of biological data
possible.
