Fundamentals of Biochemistry

1. IntroductionWhat is Biochemistry?

Page 21: 1 Introduction

What is Biochemistry?

The scientific discipline that seeks to explain life at the molecular level.

A means for determining how organisms “work” using the tools and terminology of chemistry.

A practical science with wide-ranging applications in a range of life science subjects, in treatment of diseases, and in industry.
