Form of study
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. Have basic knowledge of analytical, biological and medical chemistry, in particular
regarding the properties of chemical compounds and their interaction with biological systems.
2. Have an idea of the basics of pharmacology, in particular the effect of chemical
substances on the body and the routes of their entry.
3. Have the basics of human physiology and pathophysiology, understand
the mechanisms of organ and system dysfunction.
4. Master the basic principles of clinical laboratory diagnostics,
including the principles of laboratory research and evaluation of their results.
Course content
The elective discipline "Fundamentals of Toxicology and Assessment of Toxicological
States" is aimed at forming in students a systematic understanding of the
sources, classification and mechanisms of action of toxic substances, the pathogenesis of acute and
chronic intoxications, as well as the principles of laboratory diagnostics of
toxicological states. The course examines the main groups of
toxicants, their effect on organs and systems, laboratory markers of intoxications,
methods of selection and preparation of biological material, interpretation of
research results and the role of a laboratory diagnostics specialist in the detection and monitoring of
toxic lesions. Special attention is paid to clinical and laboratory
approaches to assessing the severity of intoxications and the principles of emergency care.
