As part of Delmar's "Clinical Laboratory Manual" series, this text provides a hands-on approach to teaching clinical chemistry with numerous opportunities for practice and feedback of the principles covered in the units. Case studies offer opportunities for application of principles discussed in the units. Within each unit emphasis is put on safety, quality control, and test methods with application of results to clinical conditions. General information applicable to all areas of the laboratory such as identification and use of glassware, quality control, and safety are also included in the first few units. Basic principles of instrumentation and automation are introduced and applied specifically as test methods in later units. Analysis of major physiologic components of clinical chemistry are also discussed.
