Abstract
Modern technologies such as the synthetic biology present some capabilities and new solutions for different problems of human life. The synthetic biology as the most advanced part of the genetic engineering has many applications in the different scientific diciplines including agriculture, medicine, industy, and environment. In agriculture, it could be applied in improvement of new resistant healthier crops with more productivity, and it is capable to solve many more problems lacking a definitive solution. The Synthetic biology serves new improved crops not only via genome editing techniques, but also through domestication of new organisms. In the field of health and medicine, the most important applications of synthetic biology are production of new vaccines and drugs, construction of genetic circuits for tumor targeting, controlled release of the therapeutic agents, and the personalized medicine. Beside these great and outstanding services, there are some possible risks and incertainties about dual use of the technology. These issues will be discussed in this article in the three categories including biosafety, biosecurity and ethics.
Keywords: Agriculture, improvement, health, environment, dual use
