This textbook contains a systematic presentation of the course of biological chemistry according

to the educational program approved for students of higher medical (pharmaceutical) educational

establishments. The core text of this book examines the structure of an enzyme, and the metabolic

pathways of the major classes of biomolecules (proteins, amino acids, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleotides, porphyrins); structural features and properties of nucleic acids, DNA and RNA; molecular biology and genetics, biochemical foundations of the physiological functions of the human body and their neurohumoral regulation are highlighted. Considerable attention is paid to the molecular mechanisms underlying the functions of blood cells, liver, kidneys, muscles, connective tissue, immune and nervous systems. The biochemical basis of the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, obesity, diseases of the endocrine, immune, nervous systems and connective tissue are considered. In addition to informational material, each chapter of the textbook contains tests and tasks for self-control.

In order to improve the quality of preparation of pharmaceutical students for the licensing integrated exam “Krok 2 Pharmacy” Integrated Test-Based” by the teachers of the Department of Medicinal Chemistry and Toxicology of the Faculty of Pharmacy in Bogomolets National Medical University created the handbook “Pharmaceutical Chemistry. Multichoice questions with explanations for Pharmacy Faculty students”. The study guide was prepared in accordance with the typical curriculum of the discipline “Pharmaceutical Chemistry” for students studying in specialty 226 “Pharmacy, Industrial Pharmacy”. According to the content, structure, logic and sequence of the material, the handbook is an original publication that has a practical value for better learning of the pharmaceutical chemistry discipline.

The section with multichoice test questions is systematized according to the order of the material presentation in the handbook. Variants of the presented test questions are determined by open test tasks, which were used to control the knowledge of students in the specialty “Pharmacy, Industrial Pharmacy” for all previous years in the licensing comprehensive exam “KROK 2. Pharmacy”. The study guide is aimed at self-monitoring of knowledge of pharmaceutical chemistry in preparation for the licensing comprehensive exam “KROK 2. Pharmacy” for full-time students pursuing higher education in the specialty “Pharmacy, Industrial Pharmacy”.

The textbook “Organic Chemistry. Test tasks with explanations” for pharmacy faculty students was created by teachers of the Department of Medicinal Chemistry and Toxicology of the Pharmaceutical faculty of the Bogomolets National Medical University to improve the quality of preparation of students for a comprehensive independent assessment of qualification characteristics,  the USQE-1 (which includes the discipline of “Organic chemistry”)”.

The textbook is prepared by the standard curriculum of the discipline “Organic Chemistry” for students majoring in 226 “Pharmacy, Industrial Pharmacy”.

According to the content, structure, logic, and sequence of presentation of the material, the textbook “Organic Chemistry. Test tasks with explanations for students of the Pharmaceutical faculty” is an original publication that has practical significance for better mastering the course of organic chemistry.

The section with test questions is systematized by the order of presentation of materials in the manual. Variants of the presented test questions were prepared based on open test tasks, which were offered for control of students’ knowledge at the USQE-1 in the specialty “Pharmacy, Industrial Pharmacy” for the previous 17 years.

The textbook is aimed at the self-control of knowledge in organic chemistry in preparation for the USQE-1 for full-time students and part-time students majoring in «Pharmacy, Industrial Pharmacy».
