Overview: Malaysian Industrial Biotechnology

Industrial biotechnology is the application of biological based systems and their components in the manufacture of industrial products or in the support of industrial processes. Industrial biotechnology (also referred to as “White Biotechnology”) is one of the three areas of the biotechnology sector, the others being Healthcare biotechnology (“Red biotechnology”) and Agricultural biotechnology (“Green biotechnology”). Industrial biotechnology is mainly based on fermentation technology and bio-catalysis. Fermentation is a biological process in which an organism or its components anaerobically convert organic compounds into alternative organic compounds.
