"Basic Concepts in Biochemistry has just one goal: to review the toughest concepts in biochemistry in an accessible format so your understanding is through and complete."--BOOK JACKET.

Writing as a means of sharing, evaluating and refining ideas, the author of the book "Understanding Basic Chemistry - for schools and colleges" - presents his work in a form that can be easily comprehended without much assistance. Key topics covered in this book include the kind of reading material every chemistry student needs to have. With a comprehensive coverage on basic chemistry topics including the essential aspects of theoretical and practical chemistry, this book is a "must-have" for all aspiring young chemists and scientists. The book is also for anyone interested in a practical and rewarding guide to help broaden the understanding of the basic concepts of chemistry. The easy to follow writing style used in this work makes all topics to be easily accessible to students at any level of understanding.

This book will serve as a practical manual for undergraduate students in MBBS. Related clinical concepts will also be useful in the preparation of postgraduate entrance exams.

We are very pleased to put forth the revised edition of 'Laboratory Manual of Biochemistry and Clinical Pathology'. We have incorporated all the suggestions, modified it to make it easier, student friendly and relevant in terms of achieving curriculum outcome. We are very much thankful to all the learned teachers who have given their feedback whole-heartedly. We have even incorporated the changes in this manual based on the feedback given by the teachers from all the institutes. Now, we believe that the manual has been fulfilling the aspirations of biochemistry teachers and students too. This manual is prepared as per PCI Education Regulations, 2020 for Diploma Course in Pharmacy. The methods of all the experiments are reviewed and added from the recent research papers, so that the advancement in the methods or apparatus can be addressed. This manual is designed for 'outcome-based education' and each experiment is arranged in a uniform way such as practical significance, practical outcomes (PrOs) and its mapping with course outcomes, minimum theoretical background, resources used, procedure, precautions, observations, result, conclusion, references and related questions. Moreover, assessment scheme is also given to help the student and teacher to know what to be assessed. During the laboratory period, you will have to multitask, while you are doing the experiment. It is essential to document properly what you do and what you observe while doing the practical. Always plan your work ahead and think about what you are doing, why you are doing it, what is happening, and what you can conclude from your experiment.

A knowledge of the practical aspects of clinical biochemistry is essential for medical students to understand the diagnostic and prognostic status of any ailment. This book addresses and compiles some of the invariably used protocols in biochemistry with the aim to enhance the understanding of the basics behind following the methodologies, including those for urine analysis; carbohydrate, protein, and lipid analyses; and diabetes and lipid profile. It discusses organ function tests, such as liver, renal, or pancreatic function tests, in addition to exploring pH and buffer, colorimeter, spectrophotometer, chromatography, electrophoresis, enzyme-linked adsorbent assay, radioimmunoassay, biosensor/glucometer, fructosamine, DNA isolation, mass spectrometry, flow cytometry, centrifugation, automation, cerebrospinal fluid examination, and oxalic acid test. The book also touches upon the basics of laboratory safety rules and laboratory glassware. The book is helpful for students to understand the relationship between quality management and specimen collection and processing them for their biological functions. It is well-suited for academic courses, including undergraduate, graduate, postgraduate, and professional courses and covers the practical syllabus for MBBS, BDS, BSc MLT, BSc nursing, and MSc students. For undergraduate students in the disciplines of biochemistry, molecular biology, chemistry, and other related biological sciences, the book forms an integral part of the syllabus with its case studies, MCQs, biochemistry, OSPEs, etc. It also demonstrates the actual experiments for understanding the concepts better and is a must read for students to acquire skills to work with a clinical biochemistry laboratory.
