Global Marine Biotechnology market is expected to reach US $4.1 billion by 2015 (OECD, 2012). Many Universities and Institutes including Fisheries Research Institutes in India are working in mariculture, marine bio-prospecting, biotechnology, fisheries management devices and fisheries products development giving emphasis on IP protection of the resources generated through commercialization of technologies. A number of marine natural products that have found their way into pharmacies recently require scaled-up process.
