Biochemists are scientists trained in biochemistry. Typical biochemists study chemical processes and chemical transformations in living organisms‚ other biochemists study DNAs‚ proteins and cell parts. The word "biochemist" is a portmanteau of "biological chemist". Biochemists also research how certain chemical reactions happen in cells and tissues and observe and record the effects of products as in food additives and medicines. The main function of a biochemist is to focus on improving the qualities
