This course consists of introductory theoretical and practical modules in hematology and microbiology. The microbiology module includes the study of microorganisms with emphasis on their morphology, physiology, biochemistry, culture, and identification. Operations of the light microscopes and laboratory safety will be discussed. The hematology module will introduce students to the basic aspects of animal blood evaluation. Practical sampling techniques, handling and processing of samples, and cell identification will be introduced. Hematology mathematical calculations will also be covered.
