Biochemistry
Biochemistry is the branch of science concerned with the chemical and physicochemical processes that occur within living organisms. It involves studying the structure, composition, and function of biological macromolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates. In the context of pediatrics, biochemistry plays a crucial role in understanding the biochemical basis of various diseases affecting children, including genetic disorders, metabolic disorders, and endocrine disorders. It helps in diagnosing these conditions by analyzing body fluids, tissues, and cells for abnormal concentrations of metabolites or enzymes. Additionally, it aids in monitoring the effectiveness of treatments and understanding how drugs interact with biological systems. Therefore, biochemistry is an essential tool for pediatricians to provide evidence-based care to their patients.
