-
4.00 Credits
Blood, urine, feces, cerebrospinal fluid, and other clinical pathologic specimens are examined in the laboratory. Emphasis is on manual performance of basic lab diagnostic procedures and the value of the lab findings to the veterinary practitioner or research investigator. Prerequisite: BI 313; Every Year, Spring
-
0.00 Credits
Lab to accompany BI 315. (3 lab hrs.) Every Year, Spring
-
4.00 Credits
The fundamental processes and basic mechanisms of the early embryological development of representative vertebrates are studied in this course. Emphasis in the lab is on the development of the chick and pig. Prerequisites: BI 227, BI 228; Every Year, Spring
-
0.00 Credits
Lab to accompany BI 317. (2 lab hrs.) Every Year, Spring
-
3.00 Credits
This course takes a mechanistic approach to the regulation of function of organ systems to provide students with the underlying physiological concepts in the homeostasis of each system and its interrelationship to other systems, the pertinent diseases that best exemplify the disarray of the controlling mechanism, and a way of thinking that will enable students to conceptualize clinical problems in relation to system functions. Prerequisites: BI 211-212; or BI 227- 228; Every Year, Fall and Spring
-
4.00 Credits
The anatomy, physiology, nutrition, breeding and husbandry of the light horse and species of agricultural importance in New England are covered in this course. Diseases of farm animals are discussed with emphasis on recognition, prevention, and common control procedures. Lab sessions focus on restraint, specimen collection, and drug and experimental substance administration relevant to the species. Field trips and audiovisual aids are included. Enrollment is limited to veterinary technology seniors. Prerequisite: BI 413; Every Year, Spring
-
0.00 Credits
Lab to accompany BI 319. (3 lab hrs.) Every Year, Spring
-
3.00 Credits
This course takes a physiological systems approach to the study of the major classes of drugs used in therapeutics. Each class of drugs is studied according to dose-response characteristics, mechanism of action, major physiological effects, toxicity and possible drug interaction. Prerequisites: BI 211-212; or BI 227-228; Every Year, Fall and Spring
-
3.00 Credits
Toxicology is the branch of science that investigates the complex interactions between exogenous chemicals and physical processes (e.g., radiation) with living organisms. This course entails an examination of the absorption, distribution, toxicokinetics, metabolism and elimination of exogenous substances from the body. Particular emphasis is placed on the effects of toxic agents on the following systems in humans: hepatobiliary, pulmonary, renal, nervous and reproductive. The role of toxic chemicals/physical agents in teratogenesis, mutagenesis and carcinogenesis also is studied. Prerequisites: BI 101-102, CH 201 or CH 210; Every Year, Spring
-
4.00 Credits
This study of the biology of animal parasites emphasizes the diagnosis, treatment and epizootiology of parasitic diseases of domestic animals. The lab focuses on clinical diagnosis, diagnostic techniques, including immunodiagnostic techniques, and experimental life cycle studies using both living and preserved materials. Prerequisites: BI 101-102; Every Year, Fall
