The laboratory is chosen to give students an opportunity to explore the structure, characteristic and function of
biomolecules. With the experiments, practise the ability of qualitative observation and quantitative detection.We hope it
can improve students’ practical ability, innovative thinking in experiment design and ability to analyse and solve
problems. At the same time, it can train the students’ critical thinking in scientific work.
