The study of chemical processes within and
relating to living organisms is known as Biochemistry. This may sometimes be called as Biological
chemistry. The complexity of life
can be explained using various biochemical processes.
Biochemistry a sub discipline of both biology
and chemistry can be divided in three fields; molecular genetics,
protein science and metabolism. Over the last decades of the 20th century, biochemistry has
become successful in explaining these processes in the living organisms.
Biochemical methodology and research covers and develops almost all the areas
of life sciences. Understanding of how biological molecules give rise to the processes which occur
within living cells and between cells is mainly focused by biochemistry. The
study and understanding of tissues, organs, and organism structure and function
is also greatly related to biochemistry.

Applications of Bio chemistry in Medicine
Biochemistry study is almost related to the
medicine industry. In the improvement in the medicine, the concept of
Biochemistry is widely used. Some of the applications of biochemistry in the
medicine field include:
1. Physiology
To fully understand the physiology of human body, biochemistry is of great
importance to scientists. The biochemical changes occurred in the human body
can be understood by scientists using the concept of biochemistry. Disease
curing based on the biochemical changes in the body have been lead to develop the
best medicine for specific diseases. The working of
organs and systems within the body is checked by physiology. How the organs
communicate, and how they combine their efforts to make conditions favorable
for survival is explained by physiology. Scientists in this field can focus on anything
from microscopic
organelles in cell
physiology. They also focus on wide-ranging topics, such as Eco physiology, which deals with whole organisms and how they
adapt to environments. The understanding of the components of our body, their
way of communication, and how they keep us alive is improved with the help
of physiological
research.
Edelweiss Publications review process is done by
their active editorial board members only, which help in reducing the timeline
for publishing the manuscript after submission.
2. Pathology
Pathology also involves the study of biochemistry.
It is usually the study of diseases. Based on the symptoms described, the
physician may get the information about the biochemical changes in the patient’s body. The chemical reactions or processes in the body are examined to
confirm the patient’s symptoms by the physician. For example, examining the
uric acid levels in the body to understand the patient’s symptoms. The term
"pathology" is derived from the Greek words
"pathos" which means "disease" and "logos" means
"a treatise" = a treatise of disease. A pathologist is a medical
doctor who is specialized in pathology. The microscopic views of body tissues
are detected by experts called pathologists.
Edelweiss Publications Inc is a USA based
publisher and journal of Biochemistry and modern applications is part of
Edelweiss Publications Inc.
3. Nutritional Deficiency
Good nutrition is really important to have a healthy
life. Hence less intake of nutrients or nutritional food leads to various
diseases. Nutritional
deficiency is also called as
malnutrition. Multi vitamins and minerals are consumed by people
nowadays to keep them healthy. Scientists use biochemistry as a discipline to formulate
the best composition of multi vitamins and minerals. The study of biochemistry
helps us to understand the function of vitamins and minerals in our body.
Body development and prevention of diseases requires many different vitamins and
minerals. These vitamins and minerals are often known to as micronutrients.
These micronutrients are not naturally produced in the body and hence to be
taken in the form of diet. Necessary amount of nutrients if not absorbed from
the food may lead to a nutritional
deficiency. A variety of health
problems can be caused due to deficiency of
nutrients. Amount of nutrients to
be consumed depends on your age.
Edelweiss Publications has a rapid review
process, it tries to publish the manuscript within 4-6 weeks of time after
submission.
4. Hormonal Deficiency
Hormonal imbalance, can lead to many diseases both
in men and women and also in the children. Physicians use the concept of
biochemistry to understand about the hormones, their functions and reactions in
the human body. Proper medicine can be developed to treat hormonal
imbalance using this study. Hormones are called body’s chemical
messengers. Hormones are produced in the endocrine glands these chemicals travel along your bloodstream
informing tissues and organs what to do. Many of your body’s major processes,
including metabolism and reproduction are controlled by hormones. In hormonal imbalance, either you have too much or too little of a
certain hormone. Even tiny changes can have serious effects throughout your
whole body can be seen with little changes in the hormones. Some of the
hormones levels fluctuate throughout your life which may be the result of aging
some hormonal changes occur when the endocrine gland gets wrong
signal.
Research/review/case reports can be submitted
towards Edelweiss Publication journal Biochemistry and modern applications Open
Access.
Applications of biochemistry in medical
treatment
Nursing discipline also involves the use of Biochemistry. To
monitor the progress of patients regularly in the hospital, biochemistry can be
used. The best treatment to the patients based on their conditions can be
developed using biochemistry. The diagnosis of clinical conditions of the
patients is made easier to the nurses using biochemistry. These are some other
possible applications of biochemistry:
The kidney function is related to the
biochemistry study. If there is any problem in the kidney, you may undergo the
urine test. This urine test helps us to detect the change in PH, color of the urine or other matters in the
urine. The fundamental study that covers this kind of treatment is
Biochemistry.
2. Blood Test
Biochemistry study is also involved in the
concept of blood test. The patient’s condition is understood by the analytical
test for blood glucose. For example, in the diabetes patient, the
stages of the diabetes can be indicated by this kind of test. There are also
other tests for diabetic patients known as the ketones bodies in urine test. The last stage of diabetes
is indicated by ketone bodies or ketone urea. These kinds of substances in the
urine can be tested by the study of biochemistry.
The study of liver can also be understood using
biochemistry. Biochemistry helps us to understand how the liver
function of liver, the type of disorder which is likely to affect liver and the
effect of certain medicines to the liver can be understood with the help of
biochemistry.
Biochemistry can be used to check the cholesterol levels in the blood. Your health condition can be
indicated by the cholesterol and other lipoproteins in the blood.
The presence of HCG or human chorionic gonadotropin
hormone indicates
pregnancy. As soon as the implantation of embryo into the uterine walls this type of
hormone is made by the placenta. The urine or blood sample detects the presence
or absence of this hormone. Thanks to biochemistry to help us discover this
hormone.
6. Ames Test
The test applied to Salmonella bacteria is Ames test. The growth of the bacteria
in the body is detected or measured by this test. The mutation of the DNA structure by bacteria can be understood and screened
with the help of certain chemicals. The indication of cancer potential in our
body based on chemical reactions can also be tested.
The mutations in two genes consisting of Breast Cancer-1
gene (BRCA1) and
the Breast Cancer-2
gene (BRCA2) is
examined by conducting breast cancer screening. This examination can be
conducted with the help of biochemistry concept.
8. PKU Test
A metabolic disease in which the individual is missing an
enzyme named phenylalanine hydroxylase which is known as PKU or
Phenylketonuria. Mental retardation can occur which is due to the absence of
this enzyme.
