Learning objectives
This teaching aims to make the student acquire the main theoretical notions, relating to analysis techniques, considered indispensable to facilitate the understanding and acquisition of professional skills which he will experience during the first internship in a laboratory of clinical biochemistry analysis.
Have passed the examination of basic biomedical laboratory techniques.
Prerequisites
Have passed the examination of basic biomedical laboratory techniques.
Course unit content
This teaching module provides for the learning of the main basic techniques used in clinical biochemistry, taking up concepts of preanalytical variability and absorption techniques such as spectrophotometry and addressing the other main analytical used in clinical biochemistry laboratory
Full programme
- Review of the basic concepts of different analytical techniques used in a clinical biochemistry laboratory.
- Learning of the main analytical techniques used (review of techniques based on light absorption, study of emission and dispersion techniques ( chromatographic, fluorometric, turbidimetric, nephelometric, electrophoretic and immunochemical spectrophotometric techniques).

Teaching methods
The teaching methodology used is participatory, with classroom discussion aimed at inducing the ability to reflect and provides for lectures, in compliance with safety standards, except for further provisions due to the persistence of the health emergency. In this case the lessons will be carried out telepresence (in synchronous-streaming) on the Teams platform. However, both methods will preserve the possibility of interacting in real time with the teacher.
Assessment methods and criteria
Oral exam including a series of questions regarding the topics covered during the lessons, aimed at verifying the degree of understanding of the concepts, the level of use of the correct terminology and the reasoning skills of the student.
If due to the persistence of the health emergency it is necessary to adopt the remote mode for the exams, we will proceed as follows:
remote oral questions, through the Teams platform (guide http://selma.unipr.it/).
