A complete and comprehensive study of the chemistry and functions of the major nutrient groups (carbohydrates, proteins, lipids), the biochemistry of the post-absorptive metabolism of these nutrients in different tissues and organs, the roles of minerals, vitamins, and water in post-absorptive metabolism, and the integration and regulation of post-absorptive nutrient metabolism in animals. The course is intended for graduate students that have a good understanding of basic nutrition and nutritional biochemistry of animals. Prerequisite(s): ANSC 315 or equivalent.Note: Students with credit for ANSC 800 will not receive credit for this course.
