Biochemistry Lab

Catalog description

This laboratory course is designed to provide relative application of topics covered in BIOC 2100 . The laboratory course introduces basic experimental techniques and concepts associated with modern experimental biochemistry. Laboratory activities provide hands-on training in these fundamental areas of biochemistry: chromatographic separation techniques used to separate and isolate various classes of biomolecules, characterization of proteins and nucleic acids by electrophoresis, spectrophotometric techniques used to calculate analytic concentrations, measuring ligand binding, and the kinetics of enzyme catalyzed reactions.
