Biochemistry Two

• Learn and practice the molecular structures and biological features of over 40 carbohydrates.

• The app is divided into 3 parts: Introduction, learning unit, exercise unit.

• In the introduction you will learn basic information about the conformation of monosaccharides, carbohydrate detection methods and carbohydrate degradation.

• The following information is provided in the learning unit: monosaccharides, aldoses, ketoses, stereochemistry, disaccharides, polysaccharides, glycosylation and amino sugars.

• In the exercise unit the structures of the saccharides are arranged randomly and can be assigned to their name and/or a suitable property by drag and drop.

• You can change the selection of saccharides by selecting or deselecting the following classifications: Aldoses, ketoses, pentoses, hexoses, monosaccharides, disaccharides and polysaccharides.

• The correctness of the chosen arrangement, as well as the correct solution can be displayed at any time.

• The app assists you in learning related terms by assigning them.

• The operation is self-explanatory and intuitively understandable.

• The target group of the app are scientific, interested pupils and students of biochemistry, chemistry, pharmacy, biology and medicine.

Features


• Learn and practice the 2D structures, names and biological properties of important monosaccharides, disaccharides and polysaccharides.

• You can display the names and/or properties of the saccharides.

• The structures or names are arranged randomly. The assignment to the corresponding feature can be shuffled at any time or the correct assignment of the features can be displayed.

• The structural formulas can be enlarged by double tapping or long pressing, so that details can also be seen.

• No registration is required.

• No telemetry data are recorded!
