Title: Dose anybody know about the Carbohydrate Chemistry?
Post by: JJWu on December 31, 2018, 10:55:02 AM
I am a undergraduate student. (grade 1)I already join a group working on the Carbohydrates.

As a matter of fact, I am now learning Inorganic Chemistry, just learned a little in high school

SO i wanna u guys tell me something about it, please.

I am learning Organic Chemistry by myself.

I'd appreciate it if you can give some advice and information about the Carbohydrate Chemistry!

Happy new year to all of you. Thanks!
ps:I am poor in English, pls forgive me.

You should start by reading some textbooks. We can't exactly teach you about a massive and complex topic post by post.

Googling "carbohydrate chemistry textbook" got me several obvious choices in seconds.

Chapter 7 in Principles of Biochemistry by Nelson and Cox is a good introduction.  However, if you are interested in how to synthesize carbohydrates, you will need additional books or articles.

I will go to see the book. I am not sure if I can find it.
Because the resources I got are really limited.
