19	Objective of the Course:	Aim of the course is to ensure that students understand the clinical biochemistry. The goal of course is understanding of usage areas of biochemistry in the hospital laboratories. Understanding methods of spectrophotometric, colorimetric and recognizing equipment used to these areas. Showing analysis of various organic and inorganic materials, qualitative and quantitative analysis of proteins, physical analysis of urine. Showing blood analysis and methods of taking blood.
