This textbook from Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers is an English medium (अंग्रेजी माध्यम) book on Biochemistry, written by Pankaja Naik, prepared for MBBS students as well as for dental, nursing, pharmacy and allied health science students. This is the 3rd Edition. As the title indicates, the book concentrates on the essentials (आवश्यक सिद्धांत): the chemistry of biomolecules is established first, and the metabolic pathways are then developed step by step with their regulation and the disorders that follow when a step fails — without the extended detail of a reference text. Coverage includes carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and amino acids, enzymes, vitamins and minerals, nucleic acids and molecular biology, biological oxidation, hormones, nutrition and clinical biochemistry. Clinical notes (क्लिनिकल टिप्पणियाँ) link each topic to disease, and review questions (अभ्यास प्रश्न) at the end of the chapters support examination preparation and revision. All content, terminology and explanations in this book are presented in the English language only.
