● Study of components in the blood including enzymes, hormones, electrolytes, chemicals or poison. It is the most automated area of the laboratory. ● Tests performed on serum, plasma, urine and other body fluids.

identifies and isolates pathogens that cause harm to our body, gives diagnosis, treatment and prevention to infections and diseases prior to what type of microbe that is being able to infect you.

is a branch of microbiology that is concerned with the study of bacteria

he branch of microbiology that is concerned with the study of parasites.

is the study of fungi, their relationships to each other and other organisms, and the unique biochemistry which sets them apart from other groups.

is the branch of microbiology that deals with the study of viruses (as well as various virus-like particles), their characteristics, classification, as well as the relationship with their respective hosts.

Tests include: ● Gram staining, AFB stain etc. ● Antimicrobial susceptibility testing ● Isolation and Detection ● Culture identification ● PCR based tests ● Microscopic evaluation

performs scientific analysis of non-blood body fluids such as urine and stool.

the science or study of blood, blood-forming organs and blood diseases.

the study of the body's immune system and its functions and disorders.

the study of blood serum.

is the process that takes place in the lab to make sure that donated blood, or blood products, are safe before they are used in blood transfusions and other medical procedures.

Involves the examination of sampled whole tissues under the microscope.

Tests include: ● Blood typing ● Blood collection and transport ● Antigen - Antibody tests ● Immunoglobulin ● Infectious markers ● HLA typing

Tests include: ● Papanicolaou Smear (PAP Smear) ● Biopsy ● Autopsy ● Cytology

uses antibodies to check for certain antigens (markers) in a sample of tissue

is the study of living things at the level of the molecules which control them and make them up.

is technology that utilizes biological systems, living organisms or parts of this to develop or create different products.

a process which separates molecules such as DNA or proteins out according to their size, electrophoresis is a mainstay of molecular biology laboratories.

a process used to amplify very small amounts of DNA to amounts which can be used in further experiments.

the process of joining two pieces of DNA together .

a technique used to specifically identify biomolecules following electrophoresis. The molecule of interest is indicated using either a labeled probe (a complementary strand of nucleic acid) or a labeled antibody raised against a specific protein.

the technique of introducing a new gene into a cell or organism.

is the study of hormones.

the study of the adverse effects of chemicals or physical agents on living organisms.

● substances that produce adverse biological effects of any nature ● may be chemical or physical in nature ● effects may be of various types (acute, chronic, etc.)

● specific proteins produced by living organisms (mushroom toxin or tetanus toxin) ● most exhibit immediate effects

toxicants that cause immediate death or illness when experienced in very small amounts

● is anything that can produce an adverse biological effect. It may be chemical, physical, or biological in form. ● may be: chemical (such as cyanide), physical (such as radiation) and biological (such as snake venom).

is simply a material which has toxic properties.

it can visualize viruses ( rare makita cuz it is expensive )

smaller than bacteria, parasites and fungi

no anticoagulant ( yellowish )

there is anticoagulant ( solid RBC )

against coagulant

extreme itchiness

sometimes exhibit pruritis

antibiotic used to treat and prevent various bacterial infections caused by gram-positive bacteria
