The main objective of this book is to attract B. Pharmacy students and make them understand the basic biochemical process which can be applied in Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmacology. Thus, the book is aimed to eliminate the inadequacy in teaching and learning Biochemistry by providing detailed information about the basic biomolecules & their metabolic process.
Salient Features:
- The content of this book is innovative and presented in 5 units with a simple and uniform pattern of explanation along with all biochemical reactions.
- To make learning comfortable and magnetize attention we have used well-labeled diagrams, illustrations, flow charts, simplified and schematic represented biomolecules classification, easy metabolic pathway presentation highlighted with chemical structure, type of reaction, energetic and inhibitors, with a detailed and simplified explanation of all biochemical reactions.
- Highlighted structural changes in every biochemical reaction and Metabolic pathway illustration for easy revision.
- Easy remembrance of enzyme name from the reason behind the naming.
- Inclusion of probable questions including multiple-choice questions with key, short answers and long answers.
