Computer modeling is a powerful way to gain experience and insight into the nature of difficult ideas and complex relationships. Dynamic Models in Biochemistry teaches you to use the personal computer and an electronic spreadsheet program to model biochemical problems. By manipulating variables in these models you will be able to observe the problem's dynamics while the computer performs the calculations for you.
This manual guides you through the construction and interrogation of computer simulated biochemical events and then allows you to explore these events independently through exercises that ask you to modify models or build new models. The exercises develop intuition in the fundamentals of quantitative biochemistry (equilbria, acid-base relationships,... Tovább

This manual guides you through the construction and interrogation of computer simulated biochemical events and then allows you to explore these events independently through exercises that ask you to modify models or build new models. The exercises develop intuition in the fundamentals of quantitative biochemistry (equilbria, acid-base relationships, kinetics) and the use of fundamental concepts to explore biochemical systems (metabolism, membrane transport, macromolecular structure).
This computerized problem-solving method not only saves time by eliminating manual calculations, but also represents an ideal format for sharpening your problem-solving skills in biochemistry. Dynamic Models in Biochemistry is compatible with most spreadsheets and microcomputers.
