The goal | The aim of this course is to introduce students to the role and importance of vitamins in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics products and their interaction with other components of the product, during production and storage. Students should also gain knowledge about architecture of cell membranes and transport of solute accross membranes, as well as molecular mechanisms of biosignaling. | |||
The outcome | Upon completion of the course the students should be able to use the specialized knowledge that would enable them to properly select, protect, and determine the activity of vitamins in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics products. Gaining knowledge of molecular mechanism of signal transduction will enable students to understand physiological significance of important biomolecules and mechanism of action of several therapeutics. | |||
