    This two volume set discusses the functions, metabolism and composition, biochemistry, illuminate materials, of fish and shellfish. It explores the utilization of byproducts from marine sources and explains the implications in the development and application of marine biochemistry. The two volume set discusses various approaches for extracting fish and shellfish, and the exploration and exploitation of Biochemistry of sea flora and fauna. The two volume set also examines essential elements and trace minerals that nurture various hormones produced in the human endocrine system that can regulate the metabolism and thereby provide safe and healthy options to treating diseases.
