Biochemistry is a fascinating study of the chemical processes and transformations in living organisms on processes happening at a molecular level. It focuses on scientific disciplines, including genetics, microbiology, forensics, plant science and medicine. It is one of the academic disciplines in life science that studies the structure, function, metabolism and the mechanism of the components in the cells; such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids, up to the molecular level. The term biochemistry, was first coined in 1903 by Carl Neuberg, the father of biochemistry who studied the transport of soluble chemicals in cells which allowed for day to day cellular processes. Biochemistry is the application of chemistry to the study of biological processes at the cellular and molecular level. It emerged as a distinct discipline around the beginning of the 20th century when scientists combined chemistry, physiology and biology to investigate the chemistry of living systems.

Other electrical phenomena of interest include the behavior of ionic solutions and the conduction of current through these solutions, the effect of light on Electrochemical cells (photoelectrochemistry), the corrosion of metals, electrical effects in biological systems (bioelectrochemistry), and the separation of ions by an electric field ( electrophoresis) and the electroplating and electrowinning of metals (industrial Electrochemical).
Nanochemistry has a unique approach in building devices with a molecular-scale precision. The advantages of nanodevices in medicine, computing, scientific exploration, and electronics can be envisioned. The main challenge is to understand the new rules of behavior as the nanoscale systems lie at the threshold between classical and quantum behavior that do not exist in larger devices. Studies of nanochemical systems include interactions of individual atoms to manipulate them, to control chemical reactions at an atomic level, to study the larger molecular assemblies such as dendrimers, clusters, and polymers. From studies of assemblies; nanotubes, nanowires, three-dimensional molecular assemblies have been developed.
Food chemistry comprises three biological components of food — carbohydrates, lipids and proteins. Carbohydrates are sugars, the chemical fuels needed for better functioning of our cells . Lipids are fats and oils that lubricate the organs within the body. Proteins are complex molecules composed of amino acids that are chained, folded together into three-dimensional structure . Our body can synthesize some of the amino acids; however eight essential amino acids must be taken in as part of our food. Food chemists work on improvising the quality,processing ,safety, storage and taste of our food. Flavorists work with chemicals to improve sensory appeal, such as enhancing color, odor or texture.
Chemical reaction Engineering develop new product or process that involve chemical reactions involving both Unit operations and Unit Processes.It helps in designing and operating production plants, would pave new ways to make the manufacturing of their products easier and more cost effective, emphasizes safety procedures for every process and supervise the manufacture of every product. Chemical engineering falls into two main groups which are industrial applications and development of new products.
A bio fuel is a hydrocarbon fuel that is produced from organic matter in a short period of time. A distinction is made between primary and secondary bio fuels. In the case of primary bio fuels, such as fuel wood, wood chips and pellets, organic materials are used in an unprocessed form. Secondary bio fuels result from processing of biomass and include liquid bio fuels such as ethanol and bio diesel. Bio fuels can also be made through chemical reactions, carried out in a laboratory or industrial setting, that use organic matter (called biomass) to make fuel. The only real requirement for a bio fuel production is that the starting material must be CO2 that was fixed by a living organism and the final fuel product must be produced quickly and not over millions of years. Bio fuels may also be derived from forestry, agricultural or fishery products or municipal wastes, as well as from agro-industry, food industry and food service by-products and wastes.
A set of very specific chemical compounds obtained from petroleum or natural gas, as gasoline, kerosene, or petrolatum are Petrochemicals. The vast majority of petrochemicals, however, are derived from oil or natural gas. Oil and natural gas are used as feed stocks also.Many petrochemicals are produced under extreme temperatures (over 1500 â°F) and pressures (over 1000 psi)that requires large amounts of energy and sophisticated engineering. Because of these extreme operating conditions, energy consumption accounts for a significant portion of the total cost of production. Access to inexpensive and reliable energy sources (such as natural gas) is essential for ensuring the petrochemical industry remains competitive in an increasingly global marketplace.
Forensic chemistry is the examination of non-biological trace evidence found at crime scenes in order to identify unknown materials and match samples to known substances.
