Biotechnology is an even broader, more disparate field than digital content. It encompasses everything from biomedicine, tissue engineering (biomaterials) for transplants, biochips, biological reagents, traditional Chinese medicines, genetically engineered foods, and transgenic plants and animals to anti-counterfeiting techniques such as DNA tagging.
比起數位內容，生物科技的領域更廣、定義更分歧，包括生物醫學、生物晶片、試劑、移植用的組織工程（生醫材料）、中國草藥、基因食品及轉殖動植物外，甚至以 DNA 技術製造的產品防偽設計等。
