Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the subject is to explain theoretical principles of biochemistry and regulation mechanisms of basic metabolic pathways in eukaryotic cells. The emphasis is given on metabolic reaction in digestive organs and connective tissues, on the biochemistry of saliva and on the effect of diet on selected metabolic processes.
Students will acquire an overview of basic metabolic processes occurring in the body, including regulations. They will acquire basic knowledge required for interpretation of biochemical reactions in the buccal cavity and they will learn about the functions of saliva and about the causes of carries. From practical aspect, students will be able to carry out simple biochemical analyses including interpretation of results.
