MLT-2013 - Clinical Biochemistry* (3)

Prerequisite: MLT-1042 ; MLT-1042L ; CHE-1050
Co-requisite: MLT-2013L

Students learn the functions of various chemical compounds involved in regulating human physiology. Various disease states, errors of metabolism, and inflammatory disorders are also identified by the concentration of these compounds in the blood. Also studied are the theories, techniques, and sources of error in routine clinical chemistry procedures. A passing grade of “C” is required in this course.

List Course Outcomes (consistent for all sections)
CO1 - Describe the functions of various chemical compounds involved in regulating human physiology.

CO2 - Describe the nature of various disease states utilizing the concentration of various chemical compounds found in blood, urine, CSF, and other body fluids.

CO3 - Discuss routine clinical chemistry procedures and common sources of error.
