It involves transforming biological resources into products for human and animal consumption. The emergence of transgenic fish (such as AquAdvantage salmon) and their use as foodstuffs has reopened the societal debate on the place of genetically modified organisms in our diet.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis new aquaculture based on genetic engineering is known as the blue revolution. However, blue biotechnology is not limited to the production of genetically modified organisms; it also involves the use of biotechnological processes, such as enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation, on aquatic resources.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAquatic Biotechnologies\u003c\/i\u003e presents an overview of these biotechnological processes (genetic, enzymatic and fermentative engineering) as applied to aquatic organisms and their production methods (traditional aquaculture and aquaculture producing genetically modified organisms).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ISTE Ltd and John Wiley \u0026 Sons Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042429600087,"sku":"9781786309693","price":118.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781786309693.jpg?v=1750954113","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/aquatic-biotechnologies-9781786309693","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
