2. Hydrodynamic properties of biomolecules: viscosity, diffusion, osmosis, partial specific volume and Donnan’s effect.
3. Carbohydrates – Classification and properties of carbohydrates, mono (glucose, galactose, fructose), di (lactose, maltose, sucrose) and poly (starch, glycogen, cellulose) sacharides. Chemical and enzymatic methods for structural elucidation of starch and mucopolysaccharides
4. Lipids – Classification. Structure and biological functions of fatty acids, triacylglycerols, steroids Physico-chemical properties and analysis of fats and oils Structure and functions of postaglandins, leukotrienes, thromoboxanes


Unit II
1. Amino acids – classification, Structure and physico-chemical properties, Peptides – Peptide bonds.
2. Naturally occurring peptides (glutathione, bradykinin, kallikrien, tyrocidin). Peptide synthesis by solid-phase technique
3. Proteins – Classification, Isolation and purification of protein, criteria of homogeneity.
4. Primary structure of proteins and its sequence determination.
