Course content
The discipline "Biochemical methods of studying the hemostasis system" covers theoretical and practical aspects of biochemical mechanisms and processes underlying the functioning of the hemostasis system, the latest data on the functioning of key links in the hemostasis system - the coagulation cascade and the fibrinolytic link, the characteristics of most of the proteins included in them, their interaction and mutual regulation, as the basis for the physiological course of biochemical processes aimed at maintaining the liquid state of blood. The methodology for conducting analytical procedures aimed at detecting the appearance of a pathological process in the hemostasis system during the development of diseases of various etiologies is considered in detail.
