biotech

Biotechnology is the broad area of biology involving living systems and organisms to develop or make products, or "any technological application that uses biological systems, living organisms, or derivatives thereof, to make or modify products or processes for specific use" (UN Convention on Biological Diversity, Art. ) Depending on the tools and applications, it often overlaps with the (related) fields of molecular biology, bio-engineering, biomedical engineering, biomanufacturing, molecular engineering, etc.

For thousands of years, humankind has used biotechnology in agriculture, food production,environment and medicine. The term is largely believed to have been coined in 1919 by Hungarian engineer Károly Ereky. In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, biotechnology has expanded to include new and diverse sciences such as genomics, recombinant gene techniques, applied immunology, and development of pharmaceutical therapies and diagnostic tests.

Union Biotechnology
There are many Union species that embrace Biotech in one form or another. The Union had faced several enemies that took Biotech to extremes such as the Whakeys, the Piostla or the Ypherix. The recent discovered Tomradi appear to rely on much Biotech Union Technology, in general, focuses more on small and microscopic level biotech. But there is constant research and Union Bio-Tech is quite advanced.
