Fundamentals of environmental biochemistry: Textbook

The manual addresses issues related to ecological and biochemical aspects of the life of a living cell in autotrophic and heterotrophic organisms. In this regard, the processes of photosynthesis and energy metabolism, as well as protein synthesis, are described in detail. The issues of adaptation of animals to the conditions of winter hibernation and anoxias are affected, as well as adaptation of enzyme systems and respiratory proteins. The circulation of the most important plastic elements that form living matter of all levels in nature - carbon and nitrogen is described. Much attention in this manual is paid to the study of the issue of biotransformation of xenobiotics in living organisms.
Textbook is intended for students studying in the areas: "Biology", "Bioecology", "Water Bioresources and Aquaculture", "Veterinary and Sanitary Expertise" and Special Forces" Veterinary Medicine, as well as graduate students and specialists in these scientific areas . The authors express the hope that the book will assist in the study of environmental biochemistry all interested in this discipline.
