Handbook of Experimental Physiology and Biochemistry

Description

Physiology is the scientific study of the functions and mechanisms which work within a living system. Biochemistry, sometimes called biological chemistry, is the study of chemical processes within and relating to living organisms. Biochemical processes give rise to the complexity of life. A sub-discipline of both biology and chemistry, biochemistry can be divided in three fields; molecular genetics, protein science and metabolism. This book teaches how the body works. In this book experimental bases of physiology are emphasized. This is a multidisciplinary scientific book dedicated to advancing the frontiers of basic cellular research. It addresses scientists from both the physiological and biochemical disciplines as well as related fields. This book represents the comprehensive work of biochemistry, physiology and function. This volume provides up-to-date information on the biochemical mechanisms that modulate their physiology and function. It takes a unique approach in discussing recent findings within the context of current issues. Language of the book is lucid. This book will prove a useful reference for biochemists and other researchers.
