Clinical Chemistry and Instrumentation
About This Course
This module will cover topics on the physiological changes in the disease states and discuss the assessment of underlying biochemical disturbances in diseases based on altered analytes levels. These include the principles of analytical techniques and instrumentation that are routinely use to measure/analyse different analytes in body fluids as well as the importance of maintaining a quality management system particularly in a clinical chemistry laboratory for accurate results reporting beginning from the point of sample collection.
