Marine Biotechnology
Marine Biotechnology: the application of scientific and engineering principles to the processing of materials by marine biological agents for the the purpose of providing goods and services. Also includes aquaculture, where aquatic organisms are grown in culture and used for food, fuel, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and other products.
