The only professionally prepared laboratory manual for clinical chemistry available. Written and designed to offer MT and MLT programs maximum flexibility material and equipment discussions are treated generically so schools can match the text with the equipment and resources available to their students on campus and in the hospitals. Includes complete coverage of the major tests used in clinical chemistry labs. Laboratory exercises are broken down into manual and automated procedures, so instructors have the option of assigning one or the other or both as materials and equipment at their institutions allow. In addition to labs covering the common clinical chemistry tests, the first labs of the book introduce students to the instrumentation involved in chemistry, such as autoanalyzers and spectrophotometers. A special opening chapter on laboratory safety is included. A section discussing the operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of clinical chemistry instrumentation includes exercises and sample problems, giving students the necessary background to perform the other procedures in the text. Includes explanation of procedures, exercises, and sample problems that are similar in format to board exam questions. 19 different procedures are covered in detail, giving students exposure to the full range of tests commonly performed in the clinical chemistry laboratory. Perforated and three-hole punched, so students can tear out and turn in completed laboratory assignments, as well as save them in a three-ring binder once they are returned. Appendices include a list of where instructors can order the supplies used in the manual, as well as answers to the review questions.
