Description

Abstract: A college text presents fundamental concepts in organic chemistry (11 chapters) and biochemistry (10 chapters) for students in these and related fields (nutrition, pharmacology, and other health sciences). The sections on organic chemistry deal with various chemical classes (e.g., hydrocarbons, acids, esters, phosphorus and sulfur compounds); those on biochemistry cover various biochemical classes (e.g., carbohydrates, lipids, enzymes, proteins, nucleic acids) and their metabolism. Two final sections cover blood characteristics and functions and the relationship between nutrition and health (specifically, the roles of individual vitamins and minerals). Exercises are included after each chapter. (wz).
