M. Sc in biochemistry paper of University of Kashmir typically includes thermodynamics, physical constants, acid-base equillibria, isomerism, spectroscopy, photosynthesis, ecology and environmental conservation, toxicity of metals and radio isotopes, principles of microbiology and different organisms, biomolecules, mutations, genetic code, protein synthesis and regulation, history and significance of developmental biology, formed elements of blood and different vital systems, immunology, nutrition, liver enzymes, carbohydrate and protein metabolism etc.

Question Paper Pattern

It consists of 60 multiple choice questions objective type. All of them should be answered where each question carries one mark.
