Abstract

This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the recent advancements in marine biotechnology, focusing on both exploration and conservation aspects. Marine biotechnology, an interdisciplinary field, has been instrumental in harnessing the potential of marine organisms for various applications, including pharmaceuticals, aquaculture, and environmental remediation. The exploration of marine ecosystems has led to the discovery of novel compounds and genetic resources, which have significant implications for human health and biotechnology development. On the conservation front, marine biotechnology offers innovative tools for monitoring marine biodiversity, assessing ecosystem health, and developing sustainable management strategies. This paper discusses the current trends, challenges, and opportunities in marine biotechnology research, emphasizing the importance of integrating ecological, genetic, and biochemical approaches to ensure the long-term sustainability of marine resources. The analysis underscores the need for interdisciplinary collaboration and regulatory frameworks to effectively harness the benefits of marine biotechnology while minimizing potential risks.
