BIO 2006 in Chicago, last Monday gave a taste of the techonlogy that goes in the food featured like spices enhanced from yeast extract; cheese derived from microbe cultures that make cheese from milk and sweeteners made with enzymes that break corn down into sugar.

Several items like plates, cups and utensils used to serve food were manufactured through biodegradable plastics, made from agricultural feed stocks, instead of oil were also features during the show.

Biotech industry has spread its wings over agricultural, feedstock and chemicals sector and though Illinois does not have large industrial within the sector, says a report.
