Biochemistry Laboratory INTRODUCTION
This laboratory introduces students to basic experiments and techniques used in the biochemistry laboratory. Initially, emphasis is placed on the buffer concept and preparation.  The principle of kinetic analysis of enzymes is covered with experiments to show the effect of pH, temperature, and substrate concentrations on the activities of enzymes.  Experiments on carbohydrates, lipids and vitamins are also conducted.
