  • CH 251: Proteins and Metabolism

    3.00 Credits
    Saint Vincent College

    This course is concerned with how macromolecular structures self-assemble, chemical mechanisms of reactions that occur in living systems, and the molecular basis of cellular regulation. Protein structure/ function and metabolism are the central themes of this course. The specific objectives are to familiarize the student with the structure and function of amino acids/peptides/proteins, enzyme catalysis, and regulation, carbohydrate structure and function, and an overview of metabolism, synthetic/degradative pathways and their regulation. Prerequisites: CH 221-224; completion of CH 222 with a grade of C- or better OR permission of instructor; one year of general biology is strongly recommended. Offered Fall semester. Three credits.

  • CH 252: Nucleic Acids and Membranes

    3.00 Credits
    Saint Vincent College

    This course focuses on two major themes, the structure and function of membranes and the biochemistry of nucleic acids. The topics covered will include: structures of lipids and membranes, membrane proteins, signal transduction, structure of DNA and RNA, DNA replication and repair, RNA synthesis, protein synthesis, and the biochemical basis for control of gene expression. Emphasis throughout the course will be on the molecular mechanisms and protein components involved in various structures and processes. Prerequisites: CH 221-224; completion of CH 222 with a grade of C- or better OR permission of instructor; one year of general biology strongly recommended. Offered Spring semester. Three credits.

  • CH 277: Methods of Environmental Analysis

    3.00 Credits
    Saint Vincent College

    A laboratory course emphasizing the sampling, preparation, and analysis of water and air samples. The course is primarily laboratory based in which teams of students work on a set of environmental projects. Students are responsible for the planning, preparation, sampling, analysis, and reporting for each project. Each project will emphasize a different type of environmental matrix and different types of chemical analysis. Sample analysis will include use of atomic absorption spectrophotometry, chromatography, inductively coupled plasma spectrophotometry, turbidity, and conductivity. Prerequisite: CH 216. Offered Fall semester of evennumbered years. Two credits.
