The fundamental technology and application, containing gene information and control, signal transduction, genome DNA, cells,
and individuals, are understood, based on biomelecules, biochemistry, and cell biology on organic-biochemistry, biological
chmistry1 and 2.
The objective is to understand the point that biotechnology and applied biochemistry contribute to life technology, agriculture,
medical and pharmaceutical supplies, and global environmental conservation.
- You are able to comprehend application of life phenomena.
- You are able to comprehend mechanisms related biochemical reaction and biology to understand life science.
- You are able to pass on information about products (foods and medicals) provided by developed technology and research achievements.
