Biotechnology is the branch of biology that harnesses living organisms to develop new products. Animal cell biotechnology refers to the utilization of biotechnology for the study of animal cells and cell culture. Identification of genes, sequencing of animal genomes, regulation of genes, molecular markers, recombinant DNA technology and diagnostics are some of the key areas of study under this subject. Transgenic animals are those animals that are genetically modified to possess specific traits. They are created through various techniques including artificial chromosomes, sperm-mediated gene transfer, nuclear transfer, and DNA microinjection. Animal cell biotechnology is applied in diverse fields including animal forensics, pharmaceuticals, organ transplantation, food production, and animal breeding. This field has experienced rapid development in recent decades, emerging as a burgeoning area of scientific inquiry. This book explores all the important aspects of animal cell biotechnology in the present day scenario. It elucidates new techniques and their applications in a multidisciplinary approach. It is designed to provide deep insights about the subject to the readers.
