For more than thirty years, this serial has broadened the technical scope and expanded the scientific base of clinical chemistry. These volumes clarify the areas of molecular biology, informatics, and the monitoring of physiological parameters in critical situations as they pertain to clinical chemistry. Each volume of Advances in Clinical Chemistry contains an index, and each chapter includes references.
Praise for the Series:"Its continuity of pertinence, excellence, and authority remains unbroken - a tribute to the skilful editing and writing involved. Every informed laboratory staff must have available a copy of this volume."--Clinical Chemistry For more than thirty years, this serial has broadened the technical scope and expanded the scientific base of clinical chemistry.

Clinical Biochemistry: Contemporary Theories and Techniques, Volume 2 is a collection of papers that deals with coagulation chemistry, inborn errors of metabolism (IEM), and the biochemistry of aging. One paper explains the biochemistry and clinical importance of lipoprotein-X (LP-X) as a marker for obstructive jaundice and also as a pointer in the deficiency of lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT), a rare inborn error of metabolism. Another paper presents guidelines in determining radioimmunoassay that are used, for example, in identifying enzymes produced by various malignant lesions. One paper reviews the basic molecular events and interactions involved in the blood clotting proces...
First Published in 2017. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an Informa company.
First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.
This fourth, updated edition contains the latest developments in analytical techniques. An international team of authors summarizes the information on biological influences, analytical interferences and on the variables affecting the collection, transport and storage, as well as preparation of samples. In so doing, they cover age, gender, race, pregnancy, diet, exercise and altitude, plus the effects of stimulants and drugs. National and international standards are described for sampling procedures, transport, sample identification and all safety aspects, while quality assurance procedures are shown for total laboratory management. In addition, this practical book contains a glossary as well as a separate list of analytes containing the available data on reference intervals, biological half-life times, stability and influence and interference factors. For everyone involved in patient care and using or performing laboratory tests.
Clinical Biochemistry: Contemporary Theories and Techniques, Volume 3 broadens the scope of clinical biochemistry, discussing relevant aspects of serology, microbiology, monoclonal antibody techniques, and instrumentation. This volume includes the biochemical monitoring of cancer, use of chemical and physiochemical approaches to detecting and identifying etiological agents in clinical specimens, and monoclonal antibodies in clinical investigations. The serologic methods in disease diagnosis, instrumentation in clinical chemistry, and hemoglobin analysis and hemoglobinopathies are also deliberated. This text likewise covers the conventional microbiological techniques, serology of streptococcal infections, and impact of microprocessors on clinical instrumentation. This book is a good reference for clinicians interested in theories and techniques related to clinical biochemistry.
