The aim of the course is to provide knowledge of chemistry that is necessary for understanding chemical principles applied in biochemistry and other related subjects and to acquaint students with the importance and function of nucleic acids, proteins and enzymes, metabolsim of carbohydrates, with the bioenergetics of living systems and the links of anabolic and catabolic pathways. As part of the laboratory classes, the student gains orientation in a biochemical laboratory, learns basic laboratory techniques, learns to process the results of measurements into protocols and evaluate them. The teaching of the subject consists of lectures (providing a theoretical basis), laboratory classes (to acquire skills in individual laboratory procedures) and seminars (where knowledge is applied and practiced). |

Credit: 1) Attendance at classes Maximum of three absences in classes of Biochemistry I in the semester is allowed.For the first two absences in the semester, you must inform the authorized person Assoc. Prof. A. Stoklasová, M.D., Ph.D. in advance, but it is not necessary to provide any documentation. Starting on the 3rd absence and onwards, only cases documented by valid medical certificates or official documents will be considered. The documents must be sent to authorized person. The guarantor of the subject will consider it individually and decides whether the excuse is legitimate and acceptable. The guarantor’s decision is not appealable 2) Active participation in classes, documented by - completed and submitted homework assignments for laboratory classes and seminars (in MOODLE). In the case of an absence from the class, all homework assignments must be submitted no later than by the end of the semester. - protocols of attended laboratory classes signed by a teacher. In the case of an absence from the laboratory class, special assignment (defined in MOODLE) must be completed no later than by the end of the semester. 3) Satisfactory results of examination Average from all graded tests, oral examinations, and graded assignments must be at least 3.00 or better. In the case of absence, substitute tests must be completed no later than by the end of the semester and the date must be settled with Assoc. Prof. A. Stoklasová via e-mail. 4) Credit test The result must be graded at least 3.00 or better (66 %). Manual and topics of written tests and oral examinations are available in MOODLE. Failure to meet the contidtions (1-4) will result in “Non credited” grade. Student has the right to two retakes for fulfilment of criterion (3) and (4) for the course credit. The retake will have a form of examination covering all topics of Biochemistry I.
In the event of a forced transition to online teaching, lectures and seminars will take place as planned in an online mode. Worksheets will be available in MOODLE, their submission will be limited in time and processing will be controlled. The materials will also include test questions. Testing will be in an online mode in various forms including essay. For laboratory classes, short videos will be prepared introducing students to the relevant technique and will be supplemented by the processing of given data and their evaluation. If the lessons will take place without restrictions and some of the students will be in quarantine or ill for a long time, they are obliged to immediately notify Assoc. Prof. A. Stoklasová (via e-mail). Individual replacement of lessons will be agreed during their absence. Consultations can be arranged individually and must be agreed in advance with the teacher by email. Inspection of the tests: It is possible for one week from the date of writing, upon agreement with Assoc. Prof. A. Stoklasová (contact via e-mail). Note: The pre-term for the biochemistry exam in the summer semester is also conditioned by the results in the winter semester. It is allowed to those who had an average at least 2.00 or better in the winter semester and the result of the credit test was also at least 2.00 or better.

Notes:
Attendance at laboratory classes and seminars is COMPULSORY and a register is kept. Substitution of written tests must be consulted with Asssoc. Prof. Stoklasová in case of your unavoidable absence (e. g. illness). Before starting laboratory class, do not forget laboratory coat and change your shoes (with rubber sole - no shoe covers). Calculator is necessary. Laboratory manual is available in MOODLE. |
