Principais aplicações da química na biotecnologia agroindustrial moderna

Abstract

Chemistry applied to agroindustrial biotechnology, also known as green biotechnology, uses chemical principles to develop solutions that increase productivity, reduce environmental impacts adn improve food quality. The objetive of this study is to demonstrate the relevance of chemistry in agricultural biotechnology, addressing its contribution on several fronts, such as fertilizers, pesticides, GMOs, quality control and bioremediation. The methodology was based on a literture review on Google databases using the terms “main applications of chemistry in modern agricultural biotechnology. This resulted in results from texts that included the study o controlled-release fertilizers, selective pesticides, formulation of culture media for plant tissues, biopesticides, analytical techniques for monitoring and fermentation processes in teh production of biofuels, which demonstrated that chemistry is essential to optimize processes in the production of biofuels, which demonstrated that chemistry is essential to optimize nutrient absorption, minimize environmental damage, ensure food safety and improve the efficiency of biotechnological processes. Furthermore, it was founf that the use of chemical analyzes allows teh detection of contaminants and teh control of the qualilty of agricultural products. Therefore, it was concluded that the interction between chemistry and agricultural biotechnology is essential for more sustainable and efficient production, contribuiting significantly to food security and environmental preservation.
