1. Mid-term syllabus of Biochem-512: Good lab practices. Laboratory safety: Hazards in biochemistry laboratory, general safety measures, chemical, physical and biological hazards, spillage and waste disposal, radiation safety and first aid. General laboratory procedures, Laboratory glassware,  (usually chapter 1 of experimental Biochemistry and biotechnology covers theory part of mid-exam) + molar and molal solutions…. (no calculations but general information about them)

…. PLUS…. First 150 MCQs from each of chapters 2, 3 of the book ” MCQs in Biochemistry”. MCQs from the taught concepts and book chapters will also appear in the exam.

Final exam Biochem-512: Standard procedures for preparation and storage of reagents. Buffers and solution chemistry. Theoretical background of chromatography. Importance of Biochemical analysis in plant and animal sciences.  (usually chapter 1 of experimental Biochemistry and biotechnology plus principles of taught practical covers theory part of final exam)

 …. PLUS…. First 150 MCQs from chapters 2,3,4 of the book ” MCQs in Biochemistry”. MCQs from the taught concepts and book chapters will also appear in the exam.

Start preparing your presentations and assignments….. Assignment submission right after mid-exam. The presentations will also be started after mid-term exam.
