About the Department for Biochemistry...

Biochemistry is a branch of medicine that deals with the application of physical and organic chemistry along with Biochemistry in human health and disease. It is a field of applied biology and chemistry and is appropriate for students interested in the delivery of health-care services. For medical students it is imperative that they learn about the normal functioning of the body which deals with the process of converting raw materials or nutritional chemicals into more useful and valuable bio molecules such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and nucleic acids. It also deals with molecular biology, the science of genes. In addition, Biochemistry also deals with “blood tests”. It is the most important diagnostics sciences which deals with Biochemical investigations in blood and body fluids and helps doctors in diagnosis and decision making. The Biochemistry department is meant for Undergraduate teaching of medical students and run by a group of experienced and talented doctors and faculty who provide diagnostic laboratory services to outpatients and inpatients.

The laboratory is committed to maintaining the highest quality of performance using the latest technology and equipment that enables us to provide rapid and reliable results for the patient in the shortest time.
