Essential guide to medical chemistry for students This concise edition outlines the fundamentals of medical chemistry, drawing on classic texts and modern practice. It presents core ideas clearly, with practical scope for introductory study and reference.

The book covers what organic chemistry is, the main elements found in natural substances, and how simple building blocks combine to form a wide range of compounds. It explains isomerism, homogeneous chemical series, and the idea of chemical types that group related substances. You’ll also find material on the classification of organic compounds, the concept of homologous series, and how these ideas help explain properties and reactions. The text includes discussions of albuminoid substances, albumen, fibrin, and other nitrogenous materials, connecting chemistry to biological function and digestion.


  • Clear definitions of organic chemistry and its key elements

  • Foundations of isomerism, polymerization, and metamerism

  • How organic compounds are organized into types and homologous series

  • Overview of nitrogenous substances like albumen, fibrin, and related materials



Ideal for students beginning medical chemistry or readers seeking a compact, historically grounded reference on foundational concepts in the field.
