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
Having attended all the hours of the first-year seminar activity related to pre-analysis (first semester)
Course unit content
This teaching module involves learning the main basic techniques used in clinical pathology laboratories, incorporating concepts of pre-analytical variability and all the main analytical techniques of clinical chemistry based on absorption, emission and scattering of light
Full programme
Learning theoretical skills related to the understanding and subsequent application of the main analytical techniques used in clinical pathology laboratories (review of techniques based on light absorption, study of emission and dispersion techniques, including: spectrophotometric chromatographic, fluorimetric, turbidimetric, nephelometric, electrophoretic and immunochemical techniques ecc).
