What is the difference between nanotechnology and biotechnology?

Nanotechnology is a branch of science and engineering devoted to the design and production of extremely small electronic devices and circuits built from individual atoms and molecules. Technology development at the atomic, molecular or macromolecular range of approximately 1-100 nanometers to create and use structures, devices and systems that have novel properties. Biotechnology is a set of biological techniques developed through the basic research and now applied to the research and product development. In particular, the use of recombinant DNA techniques. Any technological application that uses biological systems, living organisms or derivatives thereof, to make or modify products or processes for a specific use is biotechnology.
