Biochemistry Molecular Model
Product Code : JL-LEP-10341
The Biochemistry Molecular Model (SKU JL-LEP-10341) is a compact, semi-space-filling model set of 262 colour-coded atoms and 260 links for building proteins, nucleic acids, lipids and carbohydrates. With this biochemistry molecular model students observe chemical bonding in biomolecules and work out polarity from structure. It is used in senior secondary chemistry and biology and in college biochemistry, and JaincoLab manufactures it in India.
Specifications
The biochemistry molecular model set holds 262 solid polypropylene atom spheres, 17 mm for hydrogen and 23 mm for carbon, nitrogen and oxygen, with 260 low-density polyethylene links: short links of 2–11 mm in white or translucent and white v-bond links of 13 mm.

Applications of the biochemistry molecular model
Students use the biochemistry molecular model to build and compare the four main classes of biomolecules, see how atoms are bonded within them and reason about which parts of a molecule are polar, in chemistry, biology and biochemistry classes.
- Building amino acids and short peptide chains to show how proteins are assembled
- Modelling simple sugars and other carbohydrates
- Assembling fatty acids and lipid molecules to compare them with carbohydrates
- Representing nucleic acid components when DNA and RNA structure is taught
- Judging molecular polarity from structure in senior secondary and B.Sc. classes
