Description:Excerpt from The Essentials of Chemical Physiology for the Use of StudentsChemical Physiology is a branch of physiological science which deals with the chemical composition of the body and the part played by the various substances found there in carrying out the phenomena of life. It thus differs from Physiological Chemistry, which is a branch of organic chemistry, and treats of the chemical composition and reactions of physiological substances. These two subjects are Closely interwoven, and this book really deals with both, although special prominence will be given to their physiological aspect.The substances found in the body are numerous, and in most cases complex; the majority of the foods from which the body is built up are equally elaborate, for animals do not possess to such an extent as plants do the power of building up complex from simple materials.The elements found in the body are carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, sulphur, phosphorus, fluorine, Chlorine, iodine, Silicon, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, lithium, iron, and occasionally manganese, copper, and lead.Of these very few occur in the free state. Oxygen and nitrogen (to a small extent) are found dissolved in the blood-plasma; hydrogen is formed by putrefaction in the alimentary canal. With some few exceptions such as these, the elements enumerated above are found combined with one another to form compounds.This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
