Many chemists in the past contributed a lot to the development of chemistry. Not only chemicals from chemistry are beneficial for industry, but it is also beneficial for the development of biotechnology. Biotechnology is a technology that enhances biology. Without some chemical reaction or fusion, some biotechnology process may not happen. That is why chemists […]
Back in the past, minuscule organisms were barely observed. Lack of technology as well as lack of experience made it hard for those who were high in curiosity to observe microorganism. Nonetheless, the growth and the impact of them surely had affected human race ever since ages ago. Because of the micro size of microorganisms, […]

Earth and living-beings are highly depend on water, since their body is composed mostly of water, especially groundwater. Groundwater is only 0,61% of the entire world’s water but an important […]
Biotechnology is a technology that utilizes biological process and organism to create products that are beneficial to living being or environment. This kind of technology is developed in order to advance the production of certain products to be friendlier in nature. Moreover, it is also alternative way to produce safer chemicals as well as safer […]
