Course Summary

Biochemistry explains in detail about the various bio-chemical reactions taking place in our body systems and also explains the bio molecules involved in these reactions to provide us the metabolic results with energy and other by-products useful for the functioning of the body. The basic concepts of Nucleic acids and their chemical composition help to explain the formation of DNA and RNA. The enzymes and their different reactions make us to understand the basic concepts of IUPAC, characterization and their inhibitions.

The microbiology explains in detail about the various concepts, history, microscopy and various media used in the process of culturing various organisms. The concepts of culturing microorganisms with sterilization and cryopreservation are part of microbiology.
