DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY 57
20G3-21G3 - Advanced Topics In Biochemistry.
An advanced study of selected topics of biochemistry based on
reading from the current biochemical literature with particular reference
to the nature and mechanisms of chemical reactions in microorganisms,
plants, and animals.
20G3. The chemistry of intermediary metabolism with emphasis
on biochemical reaction sequences and interrelationships in the metabolic
patterns of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, nucleic acids, and
other biological substances. Lecture: three hours a week. Credit:
three semester hours. Prerequisite: Chemistry 472, 496, and 374.
Offered when demand warrants).
21G3. The chemistry of enzyme action. Includes the physical
and chemical properties, natural and synthetic, activators and inhibitors
of enzymes and coenzymes. Thermodynamics and kinetics of
enzyme action in the digestion, respiration, and the degradation and
biosyntheses of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and other
cellular constituents. Lecture: three hours a week. Credit: three
semester hours. Prerequisite: Chemistry 472, 496 and 373. (Offered
when demand warrants).
25G3-26G3 - Advanced Laboratory Techniques.
Laboratory experiments and outside reading dealing with specialized
techniques and equipment in biochemical and organic chemical
research.
25G3. Advanced biochemical techniques of microbiological assay
methods, paper chromatography, enzyme preparations, enzymatic
resolution of amino acids, and the use of specialized equipment as the
Warburg apparatus, Spino paper electrophoresis apparatus, and electrometric
and photometric instruments. Credit: three semester hours.
Prerequisite: Six hours of advanced chemistry and reading knowledge
of German. (Offered Summer when demand warrants.)
26G3. Use of advanced organic techniques and specialized equipment
in preparation and purification of organic compounds. Includes
the use of modern laboratory glassware and apparatus in the synthesis
of organic compounds; fractional and vacuum distillations, column
chromatography, and fractional crystallization techniques in the isolation
and purification of organic substances; and the use of the
polarimeter, refractometer, and special melting point apparatus in the
determination of physical constants. Credit: three semester hours.
Prerequisite: Six hours of advanced chemistry and reading knowledge
of German. (Offered Summer when demand warrants).DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY
