The article examines the interaction between science and technology (S&T) from a scientometrics perspective, using the technique of co-classification, also used in other studies (LEYDESDORFF, 2008c, BASSECOULARD; ZITTER, 2004, GLANZEL; MEYER, 2003). It aims at showing the transit of researchers and inventors from the area of Biotechnology in Brazil, from 2001 to 2005, through the scientific and technological spheres by means of the correlation between articles and patents of their own. The corpus is made up of 194 patents and 2584 articles, collected from the INPI Applications for Patents database and the WebofScience, respectively. The correlation between the subjects of the articles and patents was done by a specialist in the area of biotechnology, by mapping the categories proposed by Glänzel and Schubert (2003) and the codes of the International Patent Classification (IPC). The results indicate the area of Biotechnology in Brazil is characterized by an interaction between S&T, as shown by the co-classification between the two types of documents produced by the researchers, which reached the percentage of 83.4%.Downloads
