NEW YORK, Dec. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:

Marine Biotechnology - Worldwide Market Trends

http://www.reportlinker.com/p0164255/Marine-Biotechnology---Worldwide-Market-Trends.html

Comprising the largest part of the planet's biosphere, the marine environment contains the most diverse and ancient forms of life. The advent of advanced scientific disciplines such as molecular biology, genomics, bioinformatics and application of information technology to biotechnology, has tremendously enhanced human understanding of marine life. Widening applications in several end-use areas including marine transportation, environmental remediation, cosmetics, research, and food sectors also contributed to market growth. However, the industry is still in a nascent stage and is a significantly small part of the overall biotech market.

These and other market data and trends are presented in "Marine Biotechnology: Worldwide Market Trends" by BizAcumen, Inc. Our reports are designed to be most comprehensive in geographic coverage and vertical market analyses
