EB profile
Environmental Biotechnology encompasses, among others,
preservation and restoration of fauna, flora, and their environment.
Utilisation of Environmental Biotechnology has significantly impacted
the world and will be one of the most valuable tools for improving the
quality of life for future generations by providing cost effective
mechanisms for preserving and restoring natural resources.
Biotechnology will also revolutionise many industrial processes by
providing the ability to produce energy and chemicals through green
processes that will minimise the impact of industrial activities on the
environment and reduce the world′s dependence on non renewable energy
resources. It will also enable the use of biological systems for the
remediation of contaminated water and soils that result from many
anthropogenic activities. The journal is devoted to biotechnological
processes of the preservation of nature, protection and restoration,
mainly to:
· cytogenetic and molecular diagnostics of living and ancient organisms,
· genetic variation of endangered species of flora and fauna,
· gene banking and species restoration by means of genome engineering,
· remediation in environmental protection,
· genotoxicity of organic chemical compounds,
· treatment of sewage, sewage sludge and solid wastes,
· assessment of impact engineering and biotechnological undertakings have on the state and functioning of ecosystems.
Our aim is to learn more about how to preserve and restore natural
resources, applying modern science and technology and bearing in mind
that the nature is a complex, integrated system, functioning in ways
that we intend to understand better.
