随着现代科学技术的发展和人类对开发海洋的日益重视,一门新兴的学科——海洋生物工程,应运而生。这门新兴学科,是在近代生物工程理论和技术发展的基础上脱颖出来的,是生物遗传工程与海洋生物学相结合的产物,它的主要任务是:加强开发海洋生物的化学资源、改良海洋生物品种、提高渔业产量和获取具有特殊药用价值的生物活性物质。 With the development of modern science and technology and human being’s increasing emphasis on the development of the oceans, a new discipline, marine biology engineering, came into being. This emerging subject, which is based on the modern bioengineering theory and technology development, is a product of the combination of biogenetic engineering and marine biology. Its main tasks are: to strengthen the development of chemical resources of marine life, to improve Marine life breeds, increase fisheries production and obtain bioactive substances of special medicinal value.
