National Seminar on Present Prospectives of BioActive Molecules and Biotechnology (NSPBB 2012)
30-31 May 2012
Organised by
Department of Microbiology
Andhra University, Visakhapatnam-03
Andhra Pradesh
SCOPE OF THE SEMINAR
The
proposed two day national seminar with a platform or Bioactive
molecules and emerging trends in Biotechnolgy, as there is a great deal
of interest, hype associated with Biotechnology and its applications in
various arenas of research over the years. Bioactive molecules are
substances that have an effect on the cellular function of an organism
or living tissue. They may be derived from natural (biologicat)
resources or synthetic chemicals. Bioactive molecules from biological
resources are a potential source of pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals.
In another line of development, with the advent of biotechnology, the
production of recombinant bioactive molecuLes has attracted a lot of
interest. Such recombinant
molecules have great potential for commercialization as they are usefuL in diagnostic tools. The pool of researchers with diverse expertise and the active collaboration have enhanced the progress of bioactive molecular research.

The
present research focuses on the mechanisms of action of the bioactive
molecules using new approaches such as 'genomic' technologies and
insilco modelling. Research in this area has received immense interest
among researchers
and has shown encouraging progress.
