Basic Biochemistry Construction Kit

Basic Biochemistry Construction Kit – Essential Tool for Building Biomolecules

Product Description

Designed for constructing basic biochemical structures. It includes 72 atom models: carbon (2 types), oxygen (2 types), hydrogen (2 types), nitrogen (3 types), sulfur, phosphorus, and 40 connectors (models of intermolecular bonds). Atoms have diameters from 17 mm to 23 mm.

The set enables the construction of simple biochemical molecules (found in living organisms), including: H₂NCH₂COOH (glycine), CH₃CHNH₂COOH (alanine), C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose), CH₂CHCH₂(OCO-R)₃ – general structure of fatty acids, H₂NCH₂CONHCHCH3COOH (Gly-Ala: formed by the condensation of glycine and alanine, forming a peptide bond HNCO). Using the Gly-Ala model you can explore the spatial visualization of peptide bonding.

The kit includes:

• Hydrogen atoms H, 25 pieces, diameter 15 mm
• Carbon atoms C, 21 pieces, diameter 22 mm
• Oxygen atoms O, 13 pieces, diameter 22 mm
• Nitrogen atoms N, 11 pieces, diameter 22 mm
• Sulfur atoms S, 1 piece, diameter 22 mm
• Phosphorus atoms F, 1 piece, diameter 22 mm
• Medium-length bonds, 40 pieces
• Long, flexible bonds, 10 pieces
