| Course abstract | |
| Biochemistry stydies the chemical composition of live organisms and the chemical processes of metabolism. Biochemical transformations of food components are considered in the course of biochemistry, the main accent is directed toward the exploration of the interconnection between processes of metabolism and its regulation in organism. Understanding of these processes is the necessary base of profesional activities in food technology and food-processing science. | |
