Interesting question

I favorite the food biotechnology field.

Use of living cells for developing products and services is Biotechnology. Food Biotechnology is one of it's most accomplished outcome!

Food science. I am interested in biotechnology but it will take time to learn

Thank you for your thoughts!

I too recommend food science.

Biotechnology is a very important tool in food science, and these areas overlap more as each year goes by. What I’ve personally found is that microbiology is the limiting factor for food science academics getting more involved in biotech research. But this is improving each year. Too often biotech is seen by people for its uses in medicine, but I think thats changing, and people are more and more realising how intertwined food science and biotechnology actually are, after all, food scientists have been using biotech for many many more years than other fields, just look at yoghurts and beer, some of the earliest food processes were in fact biotechnology.

In fact Marc! Perhaps there was a problem in the question, which was about nutrition science-dietetic science in comparing biotechnology.

Sorry!

Thanks for your discussion!

Ok, guess I came at this from a different angle, these are both multidisciplinary fields and many different ways to view them. My undergrad was in Food Science and Nutrition, my masters in Food Biotech, so you can see the direction I headed in. I think dietetics is quite a different field to me as it deals with ill people and personally Ive not been that attracted to it, but I understand the appeal and have friends that have gone on to work in this.

The Biotechnology is an inevitable part of food science. While making alcoholic beverages, fermented foods, bread, soy sauce, ripened cheese, single cell proteins, vinegar etc one has to use bacterial, yeast/ mold and fungal strains. Food science is grossly dependant on Biotechnology primarily exploiting microorganisms!

Thank you for your valuable answers. Biotechnology and nutrition (dietetic) sciences are very important part of my life. I did my research with SCP production. Maybe I did't make the question well. What I wanted to know: to publish nutrition, dietetic science or biotechnology in the future.

I just wanted to know the direction of interests in the social network.The reason for this is: how to continue my research.

Thank you all the answer!

I see more people coming closer to nutrition science. Thank you the opinion, Nour.

All the best,

i feel food science has better scope

Thank you the answer Rajni!

Thank you for sharing your experience and opinion with me.

I think food science is broader and more comprehensive, so by understanding food science we can enter strongly into biotechnology

Obviously Biotechnology.
