Bioinorganic chemistry 02-CBNL
Students gain the knowledge of the role of the metal ions in living organisms as a function of physicochemical, electronic and stereochemical properties, of the occurrence and purposes of metal centers in biological species. They should understand which metal ions are used in living organisms, why nature choose them, how they get into cells, how concentration is regulated. They receive information about the modern methods of diagnostics and therapy based on coordination metal compounds.
