BIOCHEMICAL CALCULATIONS - HOW TO SOLVE MATHEMATICAL PROBLEMS IN GENERAL BIOCHEMISTRY

Designed to supplement and complement any standard biochemistry text or lecture notes, this book helps provide a balanced picture of modern biochemistry by use of elementary mathematics in understanding properties and behavior of biological molecules. It provides a balanced picture of modern biochemistry by using elementary mathematics to explore the properties and behavior of biological molecules. The text discusses such topics as: Aqueous Solutions and Acid-Base Chemistry; Chemistry of Biological Molecules; Bioenergetics; Enzymes; Spectrophotometry and Other Optical Methods; Isotopes in Biochemistry.
Sample problems are solved completely in a step-by-step manner, and the answer to all practice problems are given at the end of the book.With 'Biochemical Calculations', 2nd Edition , students will gain confidence in their ability to handle mathematical problems, discovering that biochemistry is more than memorization of structures and pathways.
