Quantitative Analysis: Applications in Clinical Chemistry

CHEM X416

40432
Delivery Options Online
Explore the principles, techniques and instrumentation involved in quantitative analysis, with special emphasis on clinical applications. Learn the basic physiology, analytical procedures and clinical (normal and disease state) correlations to systems such as carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, enzymes, nonprotein nitrogen, acid-base metabolism, hormones, vitamins, electrolytes, body fluids and others. Study organ system function (normal and abnormal) and associated laboratory testing methods. Learn proper laboratory safety and regulations, statistical methods, and quality assurance and management. This course is especially useful for students looking to transition into a career in the clinical laboratory setting or other health-related fields.

Nichole Coleman

Nichole Coleman, M.S., Ph.D., completed her graduate work at UC Davis where she studied ion channels expressed in the central nervous system. That channel dysfunction leads to diseases that are characterized by hyperexcitability for which she designed and executed structure-activity relationship studies, biological assays and pharmacokinetic studies. Coleman served as an associate instructor of chemistry at UC Davis, and now teaches clinical chemistry for UC Berkeley Extension and serves as adjunct professor of organic chemistry at San Francisco State University. She holds a master's and doctorate in chemistry—both with a medicinal chemistry emphasis—and her research for the past 10 years has been at the interface between biology, chemistry and medicine. Coleman currently holds two patents in translational research and is the author of What’s the Matter? Personalizing Principles of Organic Chemistry (Lulu Publishing Services , 2015).
