Biological sciences, relationship

In a review on the relationship of fullerenes with biological sciences, fullerenes and their derivatives were reported by Jensen et al. [126] to influence biological processes in vivo. However, the mechanism was not yet fully understood as interactions of fullerenes at the biomolecular level had not been sufficiently studied. This was due, in turn, to the low solubihty of fullerenes in water, a drawback which has led to some work on the production of stable water solutions of fullerenes. Indeed, the low solubility in water of fullerenes and the... 

Over the past 30 years, most of the important discoveries in the biological sciences have been associated with proteins and nucleic acids, and thus chemists have been most active in conducting their research to address the relationship between the structure and function of these macromolecules as well as to develop small molecules as mechanistic probes or drug candidates to target these two types of biopolymers. This rapid progress of development is undoubtedly due to—other than the importance of proteins and nucleic acids in biological functions—the availability of various powerful tools (such as the polymerase chain reaction, solid-phase synthesizers, sequence analysis, and sensitive assay systems) to both chemists and biologists, and the close interplay between these two disciplines. 

We have used a blend of SI and more traditional metric units, because many students plan careers in areas in which SI units are not yet widely used. The health care fields, the biological sciences, textiles, and agriculture are typical examples. We have used the joule rather than the calorie in nearly all energy calculations. We have emphasized the use of natural logarithms in mathematical relationships and problems, except where common practice retains the use of base-10 logarithms, such as in pH and related calculations and in the Nernst equation. 

In this particular case, the reaction is supposed to proceed from the left-hand side to the right-hand side, and the species on the left-hand side (A and B in this case) are called reactants and those on the right-hand side are products. The stoichiometric relationship implies only the overall (relative) quantitative relationship among the chemical species involved and would not imply how the reaction takes place. The latter issue is called reaction mechanism. That is, the chemical reaction equation such as shown above does not necessarily imply the reaction mechanism. The reaction mechanism is a very difficult issue, and its delineation involves a lot of detailed studies on the reaction, and currently is one of the most interestingly studied in the chemical/biological science.
