Blood Science: Principles and Pathology 1st Edition (2014) (PDF) by Nessar Ahmed

Description

Blood Science is a relatively new discipline which merges biochemistry, haematology, immunology, transfusion science and genetics. This bringing together of traditional disciplines requires a corresponding change in education and training for healthcare scientists and Blood Science: Principles and Pathology is written in response to this emerging need.

An introduction to the subject and an overview of the techniques used in blood science are followed by a series of chapters based on groups of analytes investigated in blood – red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets, followed by the constituents of plasma, including waste products, electrolytes, glucose, lipids, enzymes, hormones, nutrients, drugs, poisons and others.
Each chapter is supported by learning objectives, summaries and further information, and a focus is given to chapter specific case studies with interpretation to demonstrate how laboratory data in conjunction with clinical details is utilised when investigating patients with actual or suspected disease. Finally, a separate chapter offers more detailed case reports that integrate the different aspects of blood science.
Undergraduate students taking blood science modules as part of their BSc programmes in Biomedical and Healthcare Sciences will appreciate the level of integration between clinical biochemistry and haematology. In addition, this book will provide suitable initial reading for those students embarking on blood science modules on MSc programmes and will be of value to new graduates entering the profession and starting their career in blood science departments by supplementing practice-based training with the required theoretical underpinning.
This book is approved by the Institute of Biomedical Science and written by its expert writers, many of whom work on the Institute’s advisory panels.

⭐ I am studying blood microscopy and nutrition and this book was a delightful help without too much complication and easy to understand for even a person that has never taken laboratory hematology in their life!!! It gives in depth knowledge to the ins and outs of the compilation of blood properties and aids the reader with colorful pics and examples. A must have for the blood knowledge enthusiasts. ⭐ Excellent book for my biomedical science course. Comes in handy for Blood Science and Biochemistry modules with clinical examples and details about laboratory practise. Would recommend this book as an essential one for any similar courses. ⭐ Really good book for biomedical scientist, would highly recommend ⭐ Recommended reading for my course, so far I have liked the book very much. The layout of the book is very good with a mixture of text and illustration. ⭐ Just what I needed ⭐ Great book ⭐ very useful book being a geeky lab rat that i am.
