Description
Practical Clinical Chemistry is a hands-on, beginner-friendly course designed for students, laboratory trainees, and healthcare professionals who want to understand the vital role of clinical chemistry in diagnosing and monitoring disease.
This course introduces the foundational concepts of clinical chemistry, including the measurement principles behind common tests, the function and interpretation of analytes, and the core laboratory techniques used in medical diagnostics. You'll explore how photometric and potentiometric methods work, learn the difference between endpoint and rate reactions, and understand how calibrators and quality control ensure accuracy and precision in results.
You’ll gain insight into preanalytical, analytical, and postanalytical phases of testing, as well as how to detect and minimize errors such as interference from hemolysis, lipemia, and icterus. Key topics include testing in complex biological mixtures, sample handling, and result interpretation. Through real-world clinical applications, you’ll see how chemistry tests relate to common conditions like diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disorders, and anemia.
Whether you're starting from scratch or refreshing your knowledge, this course builds your confidence in both the technical and clinical aspects of laboratory science. It also highlights the role of clinical chemists in healthcare teams, improving patient outcomes through accurate diagnostics.
No prior experience is needed—this course starts with the basics and progresses step by step to more advanced concepts, making it ideal for medical students, lab technologists in training, or anyone interested in clinical diagnostics.
By the end, you’ll be equipped with the practical knowledge and critical thinking skills to interpret chemistry tests, ensure lab quality, and understand the science behind the numbers.

My name is Mohamed Al Ashram. As an author, instructor, and veterinarian, I am deeply passionate about medicine, science, and technology. Reading and writing are not just hobbies for me; they are my true joys. With a medical background and a degree in veterinary medicine, along with postgraduate studies in microbiology, biochemistry, and genetics, I find endless motivation in learning and teaching.
Teaching is not merely a job; it’s a responsibility and a mission. It’s about transferring knowledge and experience to our sons and daughters, our colleagues, and our students. I believe that every lesson learned is a stepping stone toward a brighter future. Through education, we can inspire curiosity, foster innovation, and cultivate the next generation of thinkers and doers. That’s what drives me every day.
