"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.

Human Physiology, Biochemistry and Basic Medicine is a unique perspective that draws together human biology, physiology, biochemistry, nutrition, and cell biology in one comprehensive volume. In this way, it is uniquely qualified to address the needs of the emerging field of humanology, a holistic approach to understanding the biology of humans and how they are distinguished from other animals. Coverage starts with human anatomy and physiology and the details of the workings of all parts of the male and female body. Next, coverage of human biochemistry and how sugars, fats, and amino acids are made and digested is discussed, as is human basic medicine, covering the science of diseases and human evolution and pseudo-evolution. The book concludes with coverage of basic human nutrition, diseases, and treatments, and contains broad coverage that will give the reader an understanding of the entire human picture. - Covers the physiology, anatomy, nutrition, biochemistry and cell biology of humans, showing how they are distinguished from other animals - Includes medical literature and internet references, example test questions, and a list of pertinent words at the end of each chapter - Provides unique perspective into all aspects of what makes up and controls humans

The Biochemistry Basics Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Study Guide was created by a renowned student, from the University of Florida, and includes all notes, diagrams, and study guides for all the important subjects covered in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Genetics, and Microbiology. Milin Kurup is a double major in B.S. Microbiology and Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience student from the University of Florida. In addition to his degree, Milin is a UF Biochemistry (BCH4024) Study Instructor/ Group Leader, a Microbiology (MCB3020L) Teaching Assistant, a Genetics (PCB4522) Teaching Assistant, and a Neuroscience Research Assistant at the University of Florida. While many of these classes cover high density material, this study guide hopes to organize and condense the whole curriculum into short page review sheets. In the author's time of instruction and study, he organized a collection of all reactions, mechanisms, processes, and concepts all studied in Biochemistry, Genetics, and Microbiology. Overall, this biochemistry study guide covers topics such as biomolecule structures (Protein, Carbohydrate, Nucleic Acids, and Lipids), biomolecules function, biomolecule metabolism (Protein Metabolism, Carbohydrate Metabolism, Nucleic Acid Metabolism, and Lipid Metabolism), physiological biochemical relationships, genetics, and biological/microbiological biochemical processes. Overall, the guide is organized into 1-3 page summaries of each specific topic, and acts as a study guide for those who hope to study individual concepts in detail. All sections include detailed diagrams, color coded notes, labeled illustration and detailed descriptions for effective comprehension. In addition to class studies, many students also have used this study guide as an MCAT review guide. The short and condensed review pages have helped many student organize and categorize important topics, as they continue to study for the MCAT. Ultimately, this organized set can be extremely useful for students review, especially before class exams, school projects, standardized test, and much more!

Exercise Biochemistry, Second Edition, offers a clear explanation of how exercise affects molecular-level functioning in athletes and nonathletes, both healthy and diseased.

Basic Neurochemistry, Eighth Edition, is the updated version of the outstanding and comprehensive classic text on neurochemistry. For more than forty years, this text has been the worldwide standard for information on the biochemistry of the nervous system, serving as a resource for postgraduate trainees and teachers in neurology, psychiatry, and basic neuroscience, as well as for medical, graduate, and postgraduate students and instructors in the neurosciences. The text has evolved, as intended, with the science. This new edition continues to cover the basics of neurochemistry as in the earlier editions, along with expanded and additional coverage of new research from intracellular trafficking, stem cells, adult neurogenesis, regeneration, and lipid messengers. It contains expanded coverage of all major neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders, including the neurochemistry of addiction, pain, and hearing and balance; the neurobiology of learning and memory; sleep; myelin structure, development, and disease; autism; and neuroimmunology. - Completely updated text with new authors and material, and many entirely new chapters - Over 400 fully revised figures in splendid color - 61 chapters covering the range of cellular, molecular and medical neuroscience - Translational science boxes emphasizing the connections between basic and clinical neuroscience - Companion website at http://elsevierdirect.com/companions/9780123749475

Cell separation is at the core of current methods in experimental biology and medicine. Its importance is illustrated by the large number of physical and biochemical principles that have been evaluated for application to cell separation. The development of cell separation methods is driven by the needs of biological and medical research, and the ever-increasing demands for sensitivity, selectivity, yield, timeliness and economy of the process. The interdisciplinary nature of research in this area and the volume of information available in research publications and conferences necessitates a basic description of the fundamental processes involved in magnetic cell separation that may help the user in navigating this wealth of information available online and in scientific publications. This book will appeal to researchers in many areas utilizing this technique, including those working in cell biology, clinical research, inorganic chemistry, biochemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, physics and electrical engineering. - Provides examples of how to calculate the volume magnetic susceptibility, a fundamental quantity for calculating the magnetic force acting on a cell, from various types of magnetic susceptibilities available in literature - Introduces the elements of magnetostatics as they apply to cell magnetization and the magnetization of magnetic micro- and nano- particles used for cell separation - Describes the parameters used to determine cell magnetophoresis
