• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Biochemistry is the branch of science use to study chemical reactions in organisms. Biotechnology is a branch of science which help as catalyst (device or instrument) study biochemistry and many other field of science. Examining cells at a molecular level, biochemistry develops our understanding of the chemistry of life, revealing the complex processes in operation in living systems. Biotechnology harnesses these advances of understanding for beneficial use in industry, medicine and agriculture. Amino acids can be joined covalently through peptide bonds to form peptides, which can also be formed by incomplete hydrolysis of polypeptides. The acid-base behavior and chemical reactions of a peptide are functions of its amino-terminal amino group, its carboxyl-terminal carboxyl group, and its R groups. Peptides can be hydrolyzed to yield free amino acids. Some peptides occur free in cells and tissues and have specific biological functions. These include some hormones and antibiotics, as well as other peptides with powerful biological activity. At its simplest, biotechnology is technology based on biology - biotechnology harnesses cellular and biomolecular processes to develop technologies and products that help improve our lives and the health of our planet. We have used the biological processes of microorganisms for more than 6,000 years to make useful food products, such as bread and cheese, and to preserve dairy products. This book present a succinct account of the essential features of the biochemistry and biotechnology, and is being prepared by keeping in view the requirements of the students and academic professionals.
