1.6 Chapter Summary and Conclusion
Marine bioresource are unlimited, but utilization to mankind is limited. Marine
based bio industry plays an important role in produce several commercial
products such as polysaccharides, proteins, peptides, small molecules, and lipids
for various applications. Marine Biotechnology plays an significant role in our
daily day life, and it is an emerging area of field in the past five decades. Marine
biotechnological applications are widely utilized in food, pharmaceutical, cosmeceutical and energy applications. Some of the environmental applications
such as bio fouling, removal of spilled oil is being overcome through some of
the biotechnological methods. Production of novel chemicals with different
biotechnological tools increases its production and can meet the consumer’s
expectation.
