Learning outcomes
Carry out preparation of workplace equipment and personal training for laboratory tests, in compliance with safety and personal protection standards, provide preparation for the study of samples of different origins and their storage. Determine the qualitative and quantitative composition of substances and their mixtures. Demonstrate the use of knowledge about morphological changes of tissues and organs for the diagnosis of pathological conditions, identify erroneous results and take measures to correct them Understand the physical and chemical principles of staining and apply appropriate methods in laboratory research Verify the results of laboratory tests for the diagnosis of surgical diseases (norm / pathology) Perform microbiological, virological and immunological studies to identify etiological factors of disease
Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. The student must be able to independently apply knowledge of molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology, etc. disciplines, work with scientific and methodological literature. 2. Know: - Characteristics of proteins and nucleic acids; - Characteristics of different cell types (eukaryotes, prokaryotes, plants, bacteria); - Have a concept of immunity; - Principles of epidemiology; - Biochemical and biophysical research methods.
Course content
During the study of the discipline attention is paid to modern classification, genetics and molecular biology of viruses with the assessment of individual viral infections, their pathogenesis, epidemiology and treatment. The issues of methods of diagnosis and prevention of human viral diseases, planning and implementation of preventive and anti-epidemic measures for viral diseases are considered. Attention is paid to aspects of new and emerging-reimerging infections. "Virology with virological diagnostics" is the foundation for further acquisition by students of knowledge and skills in such disciplines as laboratory diagnosis of viral infections, infectious diseases, epidemiology, etc.).
