Book excerpt: Biochemistry for Materials Science: Catalysis, Complexes and Proteins unlocks recent developments in the field of biochemistry through a series of case studies, enabling materials scientists to harness these advances for innovation in their own field, from the design of bio-inspired materials, to the use of new classes of catalyst. The book is broken up into six independent parts that include an introduction to seven recent discoveries, a discussion of the fundamental knowledge and techniques of biochemistry, a look at a number of biochemical materials, and an exploration of the areas of life science, organic chemistry and inorganic-related materials. The book concludes with a discussion of cosmochemistry. Presents recent developments in biochemistry that can be harnessed for innovation in materials science Utilizes case studies to illustrate the application of various biochemistry concepts Provides readers with the fundamental knowledge of basic chemistry relating to life-forming materials, catalysis, etc.
