Overview
This book will provide recent information regarding biotechnological processes and/or advances in agriculture, medicine and engineering. As many research field, constant update is required to stay in the vanguard of scientific achievements and advances of relevance with the ultimate goal of improving humanity's quality of life. In this regard, the contributions that will be available in this book will comprise certain areas of the United Nations Sustainability Goals, which, in some ways, will provide information on the developments being made for efforts for the benefit of the people in the planet. Our contributions range between the effect of natural bioactive molecules and their activity against cancer cellular lines, biomolecules affecting biofilm formation by pathogen bacteria, innocuos film for increasing food shelf life, second generation biofuel production, among many other subjects. The information provided by this publication will interest the reader about the types of projects being done to advance in knowledge generation. The impacts on UN Sustainability Goals will include Good Health and Well-being, Life on Land, Climate Action, No Poverty, Affordable and Clean Energy and Responsible Production and Production.
