The article is devoted to an overview of some practical applications of microcalorimetric research methods for the needs of medical and pharmaceutical science and practice. The laws of thermodynamics are the main regulator of chemical processes, i.e. the processes of metabolism in biological systems. Biological thermodynamics deals with the quantitative study of the energy transformations occurring in living organisms, structures and cells, or the nature and function of the chemical processes underlying these transformations. Microcalorimetry is an indispensable tool for determining the thermodynamic parameters of a system, which is necessary both in the study of the structure of the biological system and the processes occurring in the system. The effects of drugs on the biological system and the processes of creating new drugs are also characterized by changes in thermodynamic parameters. Bibl. 43.
