HOW BIOPHYSICS HELP US?
How do biomolecules assemble and interact?
Synthesize of Proteins
APPLICATIONS OF BIOPHYSICS
Quantitative analysis - physical and chemical
aspect of the functions of biological molecules and
organism
Theoretical biophysics - use mathematical and
physical models to explain life processes
Physiological biophysics - Use physical to explain
biological processes such as the transmission of
nerve impulses, the muscle contraction mechanism
and the visual mechanism
Radiation biophysics studies the response of
organisms to various kinds of radiations
APPLICATIONS OF BIOPHYSICS
Paper chromatography, a direct development of
adsorption techniques is widely used to analyze
tissues for chemical components
Fluorescence microscopy
of endothelial cells using
three labels. Red labels
the mitochondria, green
labels the actin
cytoskeleton and blue
labels the nucleus.
