Yea, and how their products are channeled to various other pathways. Everything would be connected at 400L, then you see that the whole Biochemical reaction in cell is like an electric circuit board.

The NAs can be formed from or converted to TCA metabolites but their main fate is to make nucleotides/nucleosides/cofactors/vitamins/coenzymes.

Thats cool, well am a final year medical lab science student, i studied chemical pathology/ clinical chemistry, what i can say it is just medical biochemistry but we dont study much of the biochemical pathways, we just study investigation of diseases associated with body fluids, functional test of organs, enzymology, pharmacology n toxicology, endocrinology,vitaminology, metabolic disorders.

vivichocs: Hey guys ..hope you all are doing fine??

Emzybrown:

we are good my lady, how have you been? how is the strike going your side?

vivichocs: I'm good...I'm not a student buh a corper..

You are a student i guess, i advise you take full advantage of this strike by learning a skill or finding a job no matter how small, just gain the experience or going for computer lesson or whatever you think may be useful to you..cheers

vivichocs: My fellow biochemists, let's come 2gether here and share ideas on hw to better ourselves/ career..Do we really hv a chance in this country ? sometimes, i just ponder on this questn....i hardly hear a Biochemist got a job with Chevron ,Total..etc....pls, let's enligten ourselves on the professional courses to take inorder to equip our CVs and be eligible for jobs
in national or multinational companies..

pls, i ll like more emphasis as regards our opportunities in this country... LETS KEEP IT COMING ..

iyke52: biochem is a dead course in nigeria..go study medcine,pharmacy or dentistry...90 percent of graduate biochemists end up teachn in secondary or primary skuls...my biology teacher in secondary school was a biochemist...poor,sad,depressed dude with regrets..he said the biggest was studying bch...u guys get paid peanuts..so better try jamb again b4 itz too late

vivichocs: Hmmmmm,sorry to say but u sound like a kid..tht your so called teacher didnt make it doesnt mean others won't, ok? I understand the prospects are quite few but there are a lot of biochemists earning well in food industries,pharmaceuticals, nafdac, NNPC, research Institutes, Ndlea,some govt. Ministries ,etc..

tanx for your contributions anywy...

Vivi dont mind the lil dude, i even i know of a poor doctor who couldn't continue practice, the man started business. What you study alone doesn't guaranty you a bright future, i know many jobless engineers, lawyers, nurses, pharmacists.. So everything boils down to hardwork and sheer luck.
