About the Book

The contents of the book have been organized to facilitate the learning process and preparation for the practical examination.
Contains well-illustrated real images of tests and instruments helpful to recollect and retain the concepts easily.
Organizes in a practical examination-oriented format including different sections such as:
Section on Qualitative Analysis- To provide comprehensive analysis of different tests in order to impart a grasp of concepts to learners.
Section on Quantitative Analysis: To enable the students to master estimation experiments. The various aspects of them are different methods, reference ranges and interpretations.
Section on Charts- To improve critical thinking, an essential quality for any doctor or scientist. This section contains 54 clinically-oriented questions with answers to reinforce the information tested by the questions.
Section on Spotters- To sharpen the abruptness, a skill to be attained by a medical professional. More than 100 spotters are included to serve this purpose.
Section on Objective Structured Practical Examination (OSPE) Questions- To improve the clarity of practical work, this section also contains model OSPE questions for practice. This section will definitely boost the confidence of students to face OSPE.
Questions are provided in every chapter for better comprehension.
Useful for daily practical work of students as it helps to carry out experiments, recognize the errors during experimentation, improve practical skills, sharpen the observation ability, develop interpretation capacity to enable biochemical diagnosis of different clinical conditions, and perform brilliantly in practical examinations.
Most of the diagrammatic figures are replaced by real images in Qualitative Analysis and Spotters sections. Assists faculty and auxiliary staff in setting up laboratory for practical work as the details of reagent preparations are readily accessible with each chapter.
The book is primarily written for medical students, but it should also be useful to students of dentistry and pharmacy.
