BIOCHEMISTRY & CLINICAL PATHOLOGY – PRACTICAL

Course Code: ER20-23P                                                                             50 Hours (2 Hours/week)

Scope: This course is designed to train the students in the qualitative testing of various biomolecules and testing of biological samples for determination of normal and abnormal constituents

Course Objectives: This course will train and provide hands-on experiences on the following

  1. Qualitative determination of biomolecules / metabolites in simulated biological samples
  2. Determination of normal and abnormal constituents of simulated blood and urine samples

Course Outcomes: Upon successful completion of this course, the students will be able to

  1. Qualitatively determine the biomolecules / metabolites in the given biological samples
  2. Determine the normal and abnormal constituents in blood and urine samples and interpret the results of such testing

Practicals:

Sl. No. Experiment
1 Qualitative analysis of carbohydrates (4 experiments)
2 Qualitative analysis of Proteins and amino acids (4 experiments)
3 Qualitative analysis of lipids (2 experiments)
4 Qualitative analysis of urine for normal and abnormal constituents (4 experiments)
5 Determination of constituents of urine (glucose, creatinine, chlorides) (2 experiments)
6 Determination of constituents of blood/serum (simulated) (Creatine, glucose, cholesterol, Calcium, Urea, SGOT/SGPT) (5 experiments)
7 Study the hydrolysis of starch from acid and salivary amylase enzyme (1 experiment)

Assignments: The students shall be asked to submit written assignments on Various Pathology Lab Reports (One assignment per student per sessional period. i.e., a minimum of THREE assignments per student)
