Gene therapy is a collection of methods that allows correction of a gene defect that has been diagnosed in a child/embryo. Molecular diagnosis is a process through which the nature and cause of diseases can be detected at an earlier stage. This can be done by different methods such as PCR, ELISA, autoradiography, etc. Safety testing is a process through which the toxicity of drugs is checked. Biopiracy refers to use of the bio- resources without getting it authorised by the concerned authority.
