Essential Biochemistry, Endocrinology and Nutrition
Biochemistry is the learn of the chemistry of residing organisms, of the ways that nutrients is used to serve the entire many desires of the physique. Biochemistry is heavily hooked up with foodstuff, the examine of the categories and quantities of assorted fabrics required within the vitamin. Biochemistry can be inextricably int~rtwined with endo crinology, the examine of hormones, for many of the hormones exert their activities by means of changing the behaviour of chemical reactions in the physique.

Concluding Remarks The application of recombinant DNA technology has resulted in a tremendous increase in our understanding of physiologic processes and pathologic conditions. S. government sponsored Human Genome Project initiative launched in 1992 has catalyzed this revolution, which is currently being fueled by both public sector efforts and private sector entrepreneurship. , each of the 24 different human chromosomes). 3/15/08 6:45:22 PM MOLECULAR ENDOCRINOLOGY AND ENDOCRINE GENETICS Such a map, along with advances in communication and computers, will allow a scientist to locate and isolate any human DNA sequence of interest.
