This is the first section of the website,
it outlines the essential facts and general |
|
| |
knowledge that one needs to
know on biotechnology. To begin with, there is the
definition page which talks about the definition of biotechnology and how
there has been different definitions from views of various people and the
original definition of biotechnology. More so, there is the
history page which deals with how the concept has evolved through decades
and centuries, starting with the fermentation of beer in Egypt to the current
day gene cloning and production of genetically modified foods. This is the
important segment for know the roots of biotechnology. |

|
In this section we carefully exploited the
scientific aspect of biotechnology, and |
 |
|
have also carefully gathered information on
the various scientific processes involved in the making of biotechnology. the introdution phase exploited the integration of engineering in the manufacture of
protein, and also the modern technology that has been employed in the
gene science. Further more, there
is an explanation on enzyme technology,
how technology has helped in the modern day [laboratory] production of enzyme
also on the page are the various uses of enzymes. More so, in this section there
is explanation on uses of
gene cloning and
bacteria in the food
industries. Lastly, there is explanation on |
|
|
the structure and nature of the
Deoxyribonucleic acid |
|
|
|
|
|
This section deals with the involvement and
integration of biotechnology with |
| mainly crop farming. This is the major
section of this site in that it shows how more biotechnology has been employed
in the agricultural section to produce more yields and crops with more quality.
There is the application process
page which deals with how the integration takes place and of course the
application results which is what is
gotten if biotechnology is applied in agriculture. |

This section deals with the
concept of genetically modified foods. The security and |
 |
|
the dangers of taking
genetically modified foods. This concept has been widely criticized even
with the much advantages that it carries. In this section, there is the
definition
Genetically modified foods (widely known as GMOs), next was every thing you
need to know on Genetically modified foods, which are the
advantages, the
criticisms and the general conclusion or the
general view of people towards genetically modified foods. On thing to bear in
Mind is that GMOs are doing by far more good than the criticisms that has been placed against it. |

This section deals with the hunger and
food problem faced by Africans
and how |
| erratic this problem is. There is also a
comprehensive explanation on how this problem has
affect other part of Africans' lives.
The food problem is so much versatile in Africa to the extent that only in
Zimbabwe about Six (6) million people needs emergency food supplements as at
2001. There is also a page that explains the
solution to African's main problem ( the
food problem ). We have also given
examples
on how some of these solutions have been put in practice and the results it
yielded. There is also an |
|
 |
|
|
interview
in this section. |

This section deals with the
global view of biotechnology and how biotechnology has
being gradually taking it's place in parts of the world. This section is divided
into three main portions which are the three main continents of the world. The
first is
America (which includes north and south
America), next is the Europe , and finally there is
also comprehensive report on biotechnology in
Asia. In this section also there is comparism on general levels of
food production around the world. |

Learning Online has never being better,
with the biotechnology e- learner, students can now log on to this site and read
/download, lecture notes on biotechnology that |
|
has been prepared by professors in the field..
More so, there are educational quizzes which was basically
derived from the contents on this site, so if you have gone through this site
properly try taking either the short
or standard quiz. Also there are lot of games in this
section ranging from nice HTML games on the games page
to an interactive flash game (
INSECT INVADERS ) all these games are so nice. Under this section, you
can also go to the
guestbook and the forum
to make comments and post articles respectively. |

This part collects the media on biotechnology
it ranges from biotechnology videos |
 |
|
to interesting and nice slideshow of
pictures that are related to biotechnology. Also there is a special feature here
which is the
media manager, it is actually very nice and helps you to gain easier access
to media contents. It has all the media sorted according to their types that is
the videos and pictures (in a slides show). There is also an interesting
animation on biotechnology in this section. You can
view the animation online or
download it to view it later. |

Get to know more about whos behind the scence at BFS. The make and feel. |
| BFS stands for Biotechnology the food solution and its a dynamic project by dynamic minds from Africa and to Africa. With an international recognition and extra-professional backings the project is currently causing ways and making impacts it forcasted when it was founded in 20003.Built on a phychological color scheme, the concepts of the BFS website is genuiely agriculturally inspired and carries the passion to improve African economy and Agriculture. BFS also wishes to acknowledgment all the good people doing good things, to its good plans. We are very much grateful |
