Biochemistry 5th Edition By U Satyanarayana Pdf Book Description:

This is the book that many students and teachers use as they reference when they study or teach about Biochemistry and we hope you enjoy to download and read this book for free. The term Biochemistry was introduced by Carl Neuberg in 1903. Biochemistry broadly deals with the chemistry of life and living processes. There is no exaggeration in the statement, The scope of biochemistry is as vast as life itself !’ Every aspect of life-birth, growth, reproduction, aging and death, involves biochemistry. For that matter, every movement of life is packed with hundreds of biochemical reactions. Biochemistry is the most rapidly developing and most innovative subject in medicine. This becomes evident from the fact that over the years, the major share of Nobel Prizes earmarked for Medicine and Physiology has gone to researchers engaged in biochemistry. The discipline of biochemistry serves as a torch light to trace the intricate complexities of biology, besides unravelling the chemical mysteries of life. Biochemical research has amply demonstrated that all living things are closely related at the molecular level. Thus biochemistry is the subject of unity in the diversified living kingdom.

Advances in biochemistry have tremendous impact on human welfare, and have largely benefited mankind and their living styles. These include the application of biochernistry in the laboratory for the diagnosis of diseases. the products (insulin, interferon, growth hormone etc.) obtained from genetic engineering, and the possible use of gene therapy in the near future. Each chapter in this book is carefully crafted with colour illustrations, headings and subheadings to facilitate quick understanding. The important applications of biochemistry to human health and disease are put together as biomedical/clinical concepts. Icons are used at appropriate places to serve as ‘landmarks’. The origins of biochemical words, confusables in biochemistry, practical biochemistry and clinical biochemistry laboratory, given in the appendix are novel features
