This book combines detailed and precise courses, exercises and multiple-choice questions designed and fully corrected to ensure the understanding and assimilation of the structures of biomolecules. Mastering such fundamental concepts is essential for any student aiming for scientific, biological or medical career. The author’s academic background and many years of teaching experience have enabled him to identify the specific problems encountered in leaning this subject, which is considered difficult bit fascinating and requires rigor, logic and great curiosity. Knowledge of biomolecules remains an undeniable prerequisite in the curriculum of future professionals in the heath sectors (Medicine, Pharmacy, Veterinary…), which explains why it retains, despite successive reforms, a primordial place. It will allow students to review and master all the concepts with greater finesse and confidence, but also to acquire speed in solving exercises of increasing difficulty, meeting the various requirements or university professors. This manual brings together and combines areas of interest or fields that are often addressed separately, such as: ● Chemical bonds and aqueous solutions. ● Structures and properties of biomolecules (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids). ● Concepts of enzymology Its content meets the university curriculum of the biochemistry program, including specialties such as biology, biotechnology, agronomy biomedical, etc. It gathers the essential and necessary knowledge to be acquired by the enrolled students during the first cycle of university. This work meets a need and will be greatly appreciated by both teachers and students.
