This document provides an introduction to biochemistry and cell structure and function. It discusses that biochemistry studies biological processes at the cellular and molecular levels using chemistry.
These slide sets were prepared by Kevin Ahern, Emeritus Professor of Biochemistry and Biophysics at Oregon State University and author of Biochemistry Free for All. Please use the links to view PowerPoint presentations for each topic.
What is Biochemistry? • Biochemistry = chemistry of life. • Biochemists use physical and chemical principles to explain biology at the molecular level. • Basic principles of biochemistry are common to all living organism
Our free Biochemistry PPT can provide an organized, visually appealing, and informative overview of various biochemical concepts and pathways, making it an ideal tool for students, researchers, and educators alike.

This document provides an introduction to biochemistry, including definitions and key concepts. It discusses biochemistry as the study of the structure and function of biomolecules in living organisms.
We are dedicated to improving and expanding biochemistry education across Oregon and beyond and hope to offer materials that can assist teachers and instructors in bringing science to their classrooms.
Biochemistry • Chemistry of living organisms. • The study of biology at the molecular level. Elements • Make up all matter. • 92 occur in nature. • Identified by names or chemical symbols (abbreviations of modern or Latin names). • Identified by number (based on structure of subunits or atoms). • Described and organized in periodic table.
• Biochemistry provides a fundamental understanding of life. • Assists in our understanding of medicine, health, and nutrition. • Biochemical discoveries will advance biotechnology-the application of biological cells, cell components, and biological processes to technically useful operations.
Biochemistry is the application of chemistry to the study of biological processes at the cellular and molecular level.
