BCH 452
Introductory Biochemistry Laboratory
Section: 001

Course Description

Laboratory experiences in this course are designed to compliment the first semester undergraduate biochemistry course, BCH 451. Basic skills to be mastered include the use of volumetric equipment, spectrophotometers, chromatography, and electrophoresis. You will also learn to assay small quantities of biological materials and analyze lab data. You will learn to manipulate biochemical materials from three of the four major subgroups: proteins, nucleic acids and carbohydrates. You will determine structural elements at a number of analytical levels and learn how to think about their functional capabilities. We will emphasize theoretical information, while discussing how the techniques work. The explanations discuss how the techniques work. We focus on how consecutive methods are interconnected to form process chains.
