Study Notes

Human Body Studies and Composition

  • The study of systems and organs of the human body and their functions is known as Human Anatomy and Physiology.
  • Adult male bodies are approximately 60% water, essential for various bodily functions.

Body Components

  • Elements NOT typically identified as components of the human body include noble gases like argon and neon.
  • The torso comprises the chest, abdomen, and back; it does NOT include the limbs or head.

Medicinal Chemistry

  • Medicinal Chemistry primarily focuses on the design, development, and evaluation of pharmaceutical compounds.
  • This field intersects with disciplines like organic chemistry, pharmacology, and biochemistry.

Medicinal Compounds

  • Broad classes of compounds used as medicines include small molecules, biologics, and vaccines.
  • Medicinal Inorganic Chemistry investigates inorganic compounds and their potential therapeutic uses.

Biologics

  • In medicinal chemistry, biologics refer to large, complex molecules derived from living organisms, used for treatment or prevention of diseases, such as monoclonal antibodies.
