Introduction to Biochemistry
• The word biochemistry is derived from “bio” which means “living”
and “chemistry” which means “the study of chemicals”.
Biochemistry deals with the study of chemicals that are essential
part of living matter.
Biomarker: a naturally
occurring molecule, gene,
or characteristic by which a
particular pathological or
physiological process,
disease, etc. can be
identified.
