3.00 Credits
The ocean is the largest aqueous mixture on the planet, and this course is an introduction to the chemistry of the seas. Chemical oceanography is one of the four major fields of oceanography and requires an interdisciplinary approach to understand the biological, chemical, geological and physical processes that affect seawater constituents. The composition of seawater and its spatial and temporal variations will be the primary focus of the course. Interactions at the boundaries of the ocean with the atmosphere, sediments and seafloor that affect seawater chemistry will be explored.
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to biochemical topics, emphasizing the relevance of important biochemical molecules, reactions, and processes to health, disease, and medicine. Topics include: nucleic acids, proteins, enzymes, carbohydrates and lipids, cell membrane processes, glucose metabolism (aerobic and anaerobic), and fatty acid synthesis. The biochemical basis of several diseases will be explored. Not applicable toward a Biochemistry major. Lecture only. Cannot be taken as a pre- or co-requisite for CHE 320L.
-
3.00 Credits
A study of the chemical properties and biological functions of the atoms, molecules, macromolecules and macromolecular complexes that contribute to living systems. Topics include pH; structure and function of carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids; enzyme kinetics; and the major metabolic cycles and their cellular control processes. Lecture only.
-
1.00 Credits
This laboratory course is designed to supplement lecture material discussed in CHE 320 (Biochemistry). Topics to be discussed and experiments performed by students include buffer composition and analysis; protein dilution and quantitation; enzyme kinetics and inhibition; nucleic acid purification and quantification; and ligand binding and equilibrium analysis. CHE 320L is only required for Biochemistry and Forensic Science majors. Other students enrolled in or who have previously taken CHE 320 (lecture) may register for the lab, but it is not required.

3.00 Credits
A hands-on training experience in modern methods for obtaining and interpreting DNA profiles in forensic applications. All aspects of the process are taught, including: sampling extraction, quantification, amplification, and acquisition of a DNA profile. The interpretation of results, including multiple-source mixed DNA samples, will be discussed. Students operate instrumentation relevant to modern forensic laboratories, including extraction robots, quantification instruments, thermal cyclers, and genetic analyzers. This course is conducted in collaboration with the National Forensic Science Technology Center (NFSTC) in Largo, FL. Periodic travel to the NFSTC facility is required.
