Course Contents
Mendel hypotesis, hybridization, deviations from Mendel hypothesis, cytoplasmic inheritance. Natural selections, adaptations, mutations. Molecular biology. Gene technology: molecular genetics. Human genetics and genetic disorders. Populational, scientific nad technological opportunities of genetic engineering. Essential principles of biotechnology: microorganism metabolism, plant-animal cell cultures, fermantation and fermantation technology, basic procedures in biotechnology. Biotechnological applications: microbial biomass production (baker?s yeast, protozoa proteins), production of primer metabolites 8citric acid, fumaric acid, acetic acid, aminoacid, vitamin), fermantation (alcohololik fermantation, production of lactic acid, butric acid, buthanol, aceton), production of seconder metabioltes (antibiyotics), enzyme production, gene biotechnology
