  • 3.00 Credits

    This course introduces basic hematological principles. Emphasis is placed upon cellular classification and physiology as well as instrumentation, the coagulation mechanism, and the study of blood disorders such as leukemia, anemia, lymphoma, and hemostasis abnormalities. The course includes case study presentations correlating the relationship of hematological procedures with the diagnosis of blood diseases. Prerequisite: BIO 206/216 (with a minimum grade of C); concurrent with BIO 425. Prerequisite:    BIO-420 Corequisite:    BIO-425
  • 1.00 Credits

    This laboratory course introduces the student to those procedures which are performed in the clinical laboratory. The laboratory includes such analytical methods as complete blood count, platelet count, sedimentation rate, sickle cell studies, hemoglobin electrophoresis, erythrocyte morphology, coagulation procedures, semi-automated blood counters, and coagulation instruments. Concurrent with BIO 420. Corequisite:    BIO-420
  • 1.00 - 4.00 Credits

    Neumann University periodically offers Special Topics courses in Biology [BIO] that reflect specific topics of study which are not part of the standard University curriculum. Special Topics courses in Biology that are numbered at the 126/226 level are generally open to all students and may be designated as Core courses. Courses at the 326 level are specifically designed for students at either the junior or senior level, while courses at the 426 level are only open to students with senior standing. For any given semester, course title(s) and content area(s), as well as any specified prerequisites, are published during the preceding semester. Permission of the instructor may also be required before a student can register for any Special Topics course. Prerequisite:    BIO-426
  • 3.00 Credits

    Current methods for isolating, identifying and antimicrobial susceptibility testing of bacterial pathogens from clinical microbiology specimens are studied in this course. A variety of methods are covered, including biochemical, molecular and immunological procedures. Pathogenic microorganisms recovered from clinical specimens are reviewed by body system. Prerequisite: BIO 325/335 (both with a minimum grade of C); concurrent with BIO 435. Prerequisite:    BIO-430 Corequisite:    BIO-435
  • 1.00 Credits

    In this course, emphasis is placed upon biochemical testing, selective culturing techniques, special stains, methods of assaying antibiotic sensitivity or resistance, and case studies involving unknown microorganisms for identification. Concurrent with BIO 430. Corequisite:    BIO-430
