IMPORTANCE OF BIOCHEMISTRY IN MEDICINE

Page 6: 4   importance of biochemistry

The European Federation for Medicinal Chemistry says

the biochemistry is a guide to drug discovery and for its application

for example the morphine is a drug that reduce the pain in terminal cáncer

Page 7: 4   importance of biochemistry

the biochemistry helps us understand the biochemical changes and related physiological alteration in the body

The pathology of any disease is studied through biochemical changes

Page 8: 4   importance of biochemistry

in the present scenario many people rely in taking multivitamin and minerals for better health

the function and role of the vitamins is described only by biochemistry

Page 9: 4   importance of biochemistry

there are many disorders due to hormonal imbalance in specially women and children

the formation of hormones in the normal body function is taught in biochemistry by which the physician can understand the concerned problem during treatment

Page 10: 4   importance of biochemistry

Importance of biochemistry in Nursing

Biochemistry is of great use within the field of nursing, with many

practical applications that can assist you in becoming

a better nurse..

Page 11: 4   importance of biochemistry

Using biochemistry can be helpful in the nursing

profession, allowing nurses to determine how much medicine

should be prescribed or given to each patient they encounter

Knowing the chemical reactions

of drugs to the human body and mixing said drugs

Page 12: 4   importance of biochemistry

IMPORTANCE OF BIOCHEMISTRY IN AGRICULTURE

Page 13: 4   importance of biochemistry

The influence exercised by

the environment is

reflected both in

morphological structure,

and chemical structure of

organisms. Organic

matter is formed,

transformed and is

degraded in any living

organism (plant, animal or

microorganism).

Page 14: 4   importance of biochemistry

Biochemical processes play

an important role in many

branches of food industry

and especially in the process

of processing raw materials,

plant or animal kind.

Another example are the

enzymes involved in various

processes which help to

improve crops

Page 15: 4   importance of biochemistry

IMPORTANCE OF BIOCHEMISTRY IN NUTRITION

WATER IS NECESSARY

For a maintenance of health

Optimum intake of many chemicals

like vitamins, minerals, essential

fatty acids

Page 16: 4   importance of biochemistry

can also

The nutrients value of food material

Be determined by biochemical tests

Page 17: 4   importance of biochemistry

IMPORTANCE OF BIOCHEMISTRY IN PHARMACY

DRUGS

Gives an idea of its constitution

Its change of degradation with varying

temperature

how drugs are metabolized by

biochemical reactions in presence of enzymes
