  • Biotechnology
rdfs:comment
  • Biotechnology traditionally covers the broadly-defined area of science that deals with incorporating scientific research with living things, including genetically engineered plants and animals, synthetic chemicals based on natural derivatives, and other applications of the life sciences. In the scope of the Sixth World, however, biotechnology typically means the implantation and development of Bioware. Bioware involves cloning specific organs and enhancing them, implanting the enhanced organs into the body. It also involves the modification of natural bodily functions for cosmetic and beneficial effect.
  • Biotechnology was technology that involved biological systems, living organisms, or derivatives, engineered for agriculture, food science, medicine, or another specific use. The Cardassians used biotechnology and implanted cranial implants into the skulls of former operatives of the Obsidian Order. In 2370, Elim Garak experienced the results of this procedure and charged Quark with providing him with information and the schematics of this device. Quark contacted Glinn Boheeka and gave him the access code, followed by the discovery of his attempt to get the classified information and the ruin of his career. (DS9: "The Wire")
  • Biotechnology is the application of science and technology to living organisms as well as parts, products and models thereof, and to alter living or non-living materials for the production of knowledge, goods and services.
  • The future of BIOTECHNOLOGY, HEALTH & MEDICAL
  • "I remember standing in the lounge of my club smoking Havana cigars and knocking back 30-year old whisky, looking at my watch as the fellow on the plasma screen peered down the microscope at the DNA on the slide. I said to one of my colleagues who was also there 'He's taking his bloody time, isn't he?' When finally, an hour and a half later, the chap announced he'd finished, we cracked open another case of champagne to drink a toast. I remember thinking 'Now we can start making some REAL money!" - a Nobel Price-winning scientist.
  • Biotechnology is technology that incorporates living organisms or biological systems into its functioning. Species that make heavy use of biotechnology include the Azziz, the Breen, the Kropaslin, Species 8472, and the Xindi. (DS9 - The Lives of Dax short story: "The Music Between the Notes"; SCE - What's Past eBook: The Future Begins; VOY episode: "Scorpion, Part I") In the early 2370s, the United Federation of Planets has begun making use of biotechnology with the integration of bioneural gel packs into its starships.
