INTRODUCTION TO BIOCHEMISTRY

INTRODUCTION TO BIOCHEMISTRY

Physiology
Biochemistry
Bio = life; chemistryy = chemical compound
p
Life is come from life it self
Characteristic of life:
Grow
Moving
Breeding/multiplying

well organized and specific function of components

able to extract energy from environment
able to multiply and inherit its characteristic

Fermentation (activity of microorganism to decompose

p compound,
p
, carbohydrate
y
to alcohol))
substance to simple
Eduard Bchner (1897): experiment of ethanol production
by yeast extract
Biochemistry: study chemical reactions and its interaction in
living cells
