Neutral fats or triacylglycerol or triglycerides
These are esters of fatty acids with alcohol glycerol, e.g.
tripalmitin. Because they are uncharged, they are termed
as neutral fat. The fat we eat are mostly triglycerides. A
fat in liquid state is called an oil, e.g. vegetable oils like
groundnut oil, mustard oil, corn oil, etc.
Classification of Lipids
There are many different methods of classifying lipids.
The most commonly used classification of lipids is
modified from Bloor as follows:
1. Simple lipids
2. Complex or compound lipids
3. Derived lipids.
INTRODUCTION
‘Cell’ means a small room or chamber, cells are the
structural and functional units of all living organisms. The
major parts of a cell are the nucleus and the cytoplasm.
The electron microscope allowed classification of cells
into two major groups, prokaryotes and eukaryotes,
based on the presence and absence of the true nucleus.
Eukaryotes
ï Eukaryotes have nucleus which is covered by
nuclear membrane. (Greek: Eue = true, karyon =
nucleus). Animals, plants and fungi belong to the
eukaryotes.
ï Eukaryotic cells are much larger than prokaryotes.
ï Unlike prokaryotes, eukaryotes have a variety of
other membrane-bound organelles (subcellular
elements) in their cytoplasm, including:
Polysaccharides (Greek: Poly = many) or Glycans
Polysaccharides are polymers consisting of hundreds or
thousands of monosaccharide units. They are also called
glycans or complex carbohydrates. They may be either
linear, (e.g. cellulose) or branched, (e.g. glycogen) in
structure.
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
ï Endoplasmic reticulum is the interconnected network
of tubular and flat vesicular structures in the
cytoplasm (Figures 1.4A and B).
ï Endoplasmic reticulum forms the link between
nucleus and cell membrane by connecting the cell
membrane at one end and the outer membrane of
the nucleus at the other end (see Figure 1.1).
ï A large number of minute granular particles called
Monosaccharides (Greek: Mono = one)
Monosaccharides are also called simple sugars. The term
sugar is applied to carbohydrates that are soluble in
water and sweet to taste. They consist of a single
polyhydroxy aldehyde or ketone unit
Oligosaccharides (Greek: oligo = few)
Oligosaccharides consist of a short chain of monosaccharide
units (2 to 10 units), joined together by a characteristic bond
called glycosidic bond which, on hydrolysis, gives two to
ten molecules of simple sugar (monosaccharide) units
Carbohydrates are organic compounds comprising carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. They serve as a primary energy source for the body. There are three main types:
Monosaccharides: Single sugar units (e.g., glucose, fructose).
Disaccharides: Two linked sugar units (e.g., sucrose, lactose).
Polysaccharides: Long chains of sugar units (e.g., starch, glycogen, cellulose).
Carbohydrate digestion begins in the mouth with salivary amylase breaking down starch into smaller sugars. In the small intestine, pancreatic enzymes further digest carbohydrates. Absorbed sugars enter the bloodstream, regulating blood glucose levels. Excess glucose is stored as glycogen in the liver and muscles. Dietary fiber, a non-digestible polysaccharide, promotes digestive health.Carbohydrates are organic compounds comprising carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

Chemical kinetics is the branch of chemistry that studies the rates of chemical reactions, the factors that influence these rates, and the mechanisms by which reactions occur. It provides insights into how reactants transform into products over time. Understanding chemical kinetics is crucial for optimizing reaction conditions, designing efficient industrial processes, and gaining insights into the underlying molecular mechanisms.

amino group and one carboxylic group), e.g.
[2:40 pm, 31/12/2023] Aarav (@): Acidic amino acid
These are acidic in solution and are monoamino dicarboxylic
acids, e.g.
ï Aspartic acid
lassification Based on Chemical Nature
of the Amino Acid in Solution
According to this type of classification, amino acids are
classified as follows:
i. Neutral amino acids
ii. Acidic amino acids
iii. Basic amino acids.
Amino acids differ from each other in their side
chains or R-groups, attached to the α-carbon.
ï The 20 amino acids of proteins are often referred to
as the standard or primary or normal amino acid
GENERAL NATURE OF AMINO ACIDS
ï There are approximately 300 amino acids present in
various animal, plant and microbial systems, but only
20 amino acids are involved in the formation of proteins.
ï All the 20 amino acids found in proteins (Table 4.1)
have a carboxyl group (-COOH) and an amino acid
group (-NH2) bound to the same carbon atom called
the α-carbon
ction that occurs in the body.
Proteins are linear chains of amino acids that are linked
together by covalent, peptide bonds. Each protein has
specific and unique sequence of amino acids that defines
both its three-dimensional structure and its biologic
function.
INTRODUCTION
Proteins are the most abundant macromolecules in
living cells. The term ‘protein’ was first used by
Berzelius in 1838 and was derived from the Greek word
“protos” which means primary or holding first place.
As the name indicates, protein is the most important of
cell constituents. They are responsible for almost every
function that occurs in the body.
Derived Lipids
Derived lipids include the products obtained after the
hydrolysis of simple and compound lipids which
possess the characteristics of lipids, e.g.
ï Fatty acids
ï Steroids
ï Cholesterol
ï Lipid soluble vitamins and hormones
ï Ketone bodies.
Complex or Compound Lipids
These are esters of fatty acids, with alcohol containing
additional (prosthetic) groups. These are subclassified
according to the type of prosthetic group present in the
lipid as follows:
1. Phospholipids
2. Glycolipids
3. Lipoproteins.
Waxes
True waxes
These are esters of fatty acids with higher molecular
weight monohydric long chain alcohols. These com-
pounds have no importance as far as human metabolism
is concerned. For example,
ï Lanolin (from lamb’s wool)
ï Bees-wax
ï Spermacetic oil (from whales).
Simple Lipids
These are esters of fatty acids with various alcohols.
Depending on the type of alcohols, these are sub-
classified as:
1. Neutral fats or triacylglycerol or triglycerides
2. Waxes.
Science is a systematic approach to understanding the natural world through observation, experimentation, and logical reasoning. Key aspects of science include developing hypotheses and theories that can be tested and either verified or falsified through empirical evidence and reproducible experiments. The major branches of science are the physical sciences like physics and chemistry; the life sciences like biology; earth sciences like geology; and environmental and social sciences.

Sectional dentures for microstomia patients.pptxSatvikaPrasad
Microstomia, characterized by an abnormally small oral aperture, presents significant challenges in prosthodontic treatment, including limited access for examination, difficulties in impression making, and challenges with prosthesis insertion and removal. To manage these issues, customized impression techniques using sectional trays and elastomeric materials are employed. Prostheses may be designed in segments or with flexible materials to facilitate handling. Minimally invasive procedures and the use of digital technologies can enhance patient comfort. Education and training for patients on prosthesis care and maintenance are crucial for compliance. Regular follow-up and a multidisciplinary approach, involving collaboration with other specialists, ensure comprehensive care and improved quality of life for microstomia patients.

Its true that one cannot over look the real life experience, but one cannot out beat structured gold mine of market research.
Many 0 to 1 startup founders often overlook market research, but this critical step can make or break a venture, especially in health tech.
But Why do they skip it?
Limited resources—time, money, and manpower—are common culprits.
"In fact, a survey by CB Insights found that 42% of startups fail due to no market need, which is like building a spaceship to Mars only to realise you forgot the fuel."

Overconfidence in their product’s success leads founders to assume it will naturally find its market, especially in health tech where patient needs, entire system issues and regulatory requirements are as complex as trying to perform brain surgery with a butter knife. Additionally, the pressure to launch quickly and the belief in their own intuition further contribute to this oversight. Yet, thorough market research in health tech could be the key to transforming a startup's vision into a life-saving reality, instead of a medical mishap waiting to happen.

2. Biology
1.Biology is the scientific study of living organisms and their
interactions with each other and their environments. It is a diverse
and dynamic field that encompasses a wide range of topics, from the
molecular and cellular levels to ecosystems and the biosphere. Here
are some key aspects of biology:
Levels of Organization:
1. Molecular Biology: Examines the structure and function of biological
molecules, such as DNA, RNA, proteins, and lipids.
2. Cell Biology: Focuses on the structure and function of cells, the basic units
of life.
3. Organismal Biology: Investigates the structure, function, and behavior of
entire organisms.
Genetics and Heredity:
4. Genetics: Studies the principles of inheritance and variation in living
organisms.
5. Genomics: Involves the study of entire genomes, including the identification
and mapping of genes.
3. Introduction
Science is a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes
knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions
about the universe. It is a disciplined and methodical approach to
understanding the natural world and the underlying principles that
govern its behavior. The primary goal of science is to uncover the
patterns and regularities in nature through observation,
experimentation, and logical reasoning.
4. Key features of science include:
1.Empirical Evidence: Scientific knowledge is based on
empirical evidence obtained through observation and
experimentation. This evidence is gathered using the five
senses or through the use of instruments that extend human
perception.
2.Systematic Observation: Scientists carefully observe and
gather data in a systematic manner. This involves developing
hypotheses, conducting experiments, and analyzing results to
draw meaningful conclusions.
5. • Testability: Scientific hypotheses and theories must be testable
and falsifiable. This means that there must be a way to
experimentally verify or refute a hypothesis based on
observable evidence.
Predictive Power: Successful scientific theories not only
explain past observations but also have the ability to make
accurate predictions about future events or phenomena.
6. Reproducibility: Scientific findings should be reproducible,
meaning that other researchers should be able to conduct similar
experiments and obtain similar results. This helps validate the
reliability of scientific claims.
Universal Principles: Scientific principles and laws are often
universal, applying consistently across different contexts and
environments. This contributes to the development of a unified
understanding of the natural world.

universe. It seeks to understand the nature of the physical
world, from the smallest particles at the quantum level to the
vast expanses of the cosmos. Here are some key aspects of
physics:
12. Chemistry
• Chemistry is the branch of science that explores the properties,
composition, structure, reactions, and changes of matter. It is
often referred to as the "central science" because it connects
and overlaps with other scientific disciplines, such as physics,
biology, and environmental science. Here are key aspects of
chemistry:
13. Biochemistry
• Biochemistry is the branch of science that combines principles
of biology and chemistry to study the chemical processes and
substances that occur within living organisms. It focuses on the
molecular mechanisms that underlie various biological functions
and processes. Biochemistry seeks to understand the structure,
function, and interactions of biomolecules, as well as the
metabolic pathways and signaling networks that regulate
cellular activities. Here are key aspects of biochemistry:
14. Enzymes
• Enzymes are biological molecules that act as catalysts,
facilitating and accelerating chemical reactions within living
organisms. They play a crucial role in various physiological
processes, contributing to the maintenance and regulation of
cellular functions. Here are key features and functions of
enzymes:
15. Chemical kinetics
• Chemical kinetics is the branch of chemistry that studies the
rates of chemical reactions, the factors that influence these
rates, and the mechanisms by which reactions occur. It provides
insights into how reactants transform into products over time.
Understanding chemical kinetics is crucial for optimizing
reaction conditions, designing efficient industrial processes, and
gaining insights into the underlying molecular mechanisms.
Here are key concepts in chemical kinetics:
16. • Reaction Order and Rate Determining Step:
• Rate-Determining Step: The slowest step in a reaction
mechanism, determining the overall rate of the reaction.
• Overall Reaction Order: The sum of the individual orders of
reactants in the rate-determining step.
17. • Carbohydrates are organic compounds comprising carbon, hydrogen,
and oxygen. They serve as a primary energy source for the body.
There are three main types:Monosaccharides: Single sugar units (e.g.,
glucose, fructose).Disaccharides: Two linked sugar units (e.g., sucrose,
lactose).Polysaccharides: Long chains of sugar units (e.g., starch,
glycogen, cellulose).Carbohydrate digestion begins in the mouth with
salivary amylase breaking down starch into smaller sugars. In the
small intestine, pancreatic enzymes further digest carbohydrates.
Absorbed sugars enter the bloodstream, regulating blood glucose
levels. Excess glucose is stored as glycogen in the liver and muscles.
Dietary fiber, a non-digestible polysaccharide, promotes digestive
health.
18. • INTRODUCTION
• ‘Cell’ means a small room or chamber, cells are the
• structural and functional units of all living organisms. The
• major parts of a cell are the nucleus and the cytoplasm.
• The electron microscope allowed classification of cells
• into two major groups, prokaryotes and eukaryotes,
• based on the presence and absence of the true nucleus.
• Eukaryotes
• ï Eukaryotes have nucleus which is covered by
• nuclear membrane. (Greek: Eue = true, karyon =
• nucleus). Animals, plants and fungi belong to the
• eukaryotes.
• ï Eukaryotic cells are much larger than prokaryotes.
• ï Unlike prokaryotes, eukaryotes have a variety of
• other membrane-bound organelles (subcellular
• elements) in their cytoplasm, including:
19. • Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
• ï Endoplasmic reticulum is the interconnected network
• of tubular and flat vesicular structures in the
• cytoplasm (Figures 1.4A and B).
• ï Endoplasmic reticulum forms the link between
• nucleus and cell membrane by connecting the cell
• membrane at one end and the outer membrane of
• the nucleus at the other end (see Figure 1.1).
• ï A large number of minute granular particles called
20. • Monosaccharides (Greek: Mono = one)
• Monosaccharides are also called simple sugars. The term
• sugar is applied to carbohydrates that are soluble in
• water and sweet to taste. They consist of a single
• polyhydroxy aldehyde or ketone unit
21. • Oligosaccharides (Greek: oligo = few)
• Oligosaccharides consist of a short chain of monosaccharide
• units (2 to 10 units), joined together by a characteristic bond
• called glycosidic bond which, on hydrolysis, gives two to
• ten molecules of simple sugar (monosaccharide) units
22. • Polysaccharides (Greek: Poly = many) or Glycans
• Polysaccharides are polymers consisting of hundreds or
• thousands of monosaccharide units. They are also called
• glycans or complex carbohydrates. They may be either
• linear, (e.g. cellulose) or branched, (e.g. glycogen) in
• structure.
23. • INTRODUCTION
• Lipids are a major source of energy for the body besides
• their various other biochemical function and their role in
• cellular structure. Lipids are a heterogenous group of
• water insoluble (hydrophobic) organic molecules. Lipids
• include fats, oils, steroids, waxes and related compounds
24. • DEFINITION, CLASSIFICATION AND
• FUNCTIONS OF LIPIDS
• Definition of Lipids
• Lipids may be defined as organic substances insoluble
• in water but soluble in organic solvents like chloroform,
• ether and benzene. They are esters of fatty acids with
• alcohol esters and are utilizable by the living organism
25. • Classification of Lipids
• There are many different methods of classifying lipids.
• The most commonly used classification of lipids is
• modified from Bloor as follows:
• 1. Simple lipids
• 2. Complex or compound lipids
• 3. Derived lipids.
26. • Neutral fats or triacylglycerol or triglycerides
• These are esters of fatty acids with alcohol glycerol, e.g.
• tripalmitin. Because they are uncharged, they are termed
• as neutral fat. The fat we eat are mostly triglycerides. A
• fat in liquid state is called an oil, e.g. vegetable oils like
• groundnut oil, mustard oil, corn oil, etc.
