INTRODUCTION: The world's population is predicted to increase to roughly 10 billion by 2050, up from around six billion now; substantial extra strain will be placed on existing resources. Environmental pollution is becoming one of the most serious issues confronting all countries across the world. Many therapeutic approaches are available through biotechnology to address the pollution problem. In waste management, biotechnology finds application sectors in the biological treatment of wastewaters and the composting of solid wastes. Biological approaches are also used to cure air pollution. [1]   (ENGLANDE 2006) WASTE GENERATION : Wastes generated by various activities can be gaseous, such as carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrogen supplied (H2S), and carbon monoxide (CO); liquid (e.g., industrial effluents); or solid (e.g. municipal waste). There is continuing biotechnological research employing microorganisms to clean up these air pollutants and eliminate odors. With rising population, ...

Abstract There are more than 200 different kinds of cancer. Cancerous tumours can infiltrate surrounding tissues and spread to other parts of the body, resulting in the formation of new tumours (a process called metastasis). Anything that causes an abnormal development of a normal bodily cell has the potential to produce cancer. Cell abnormalities can be caused by a variety of factors such as chemical or toxic compound exposures, ionizing radiation, pathogens and genetics. Chemotherapy , hormone therapy, immunotherapy, precision medicine, or personalized medicine, stem cell  transplant, surgery, targeted therapies and radiotherapy are many of the treatments used. Radiation therapy's main objective is to deprive cancer cells of their ability to multiply (cell division). In recognition of a century of progress since Marie Curie earned her second Nobel Prize for radium research, the United Kingdom has declared 2011 as the Year of Radiation Therapy. Continuing advancements in radia...
