Excerpt from Organic Chemistry: Including Certain Portions of Physical Chemistry for Medical, Pharmaceutical, and Biological Students (With Practical Exercises)
Among the most important of the recent advances in medical science are those relating to the chemistry of the various organic substances which enter into the composition of animal tissues and fluids, and to the physico-chemical laws which govern, or at least influence, many physiological processes. The discovery of the chemical constitution of the purin bodies, of many of the urinary constituents, and of sugars and fats, as well as the new theories of solution and catalysis, has revolutionized the teaching of biological and clinical chemistry; and in pharmacology and pharmacy a knowledge of organic and physical chemistry is almost essential. The study of these parts of chemistry is, therefore, daily coming to be of greater importance to the medical student and is already included in the curriculum of the best medical schools.
