Abstract

Everyone today wants to detect disease early on, but because there aren't many patterns for the many diseases available, it's hard to do so. Because DNA sequences contain all the genetic data about organisms, which can be utilised by researchers to discover or treat diseases early on by developing new medications, using DNA sequences to extract patterns of disease can be very advantageous. The largest global collection of genomic sequences is made available by NCBI, but today the biggest worry is how to protect this enormous amount of data. One of the options is to encrypt these genetic sequences using blockchain technology. As a result, a study of the number of studies in this area as well as the demand for blockchain in healthcare has been conducted in this chapter. Additionally, surveys about research done in the field of DNA sequence classification are suggested along with recommendations for using classification of DNA sequences to detect disease earlier.
