Analysis of serum antibodies in certain infectious agents are performed in this section

Deals with the enumeration of cells in the blood and other body fluids (eg CSF, pleural etc)

Intended for the testing of blood and other body fluids to quantify essential soluble chemicals including waste products useful for the diagnosis of certain diseases.

Blood typing and compatibility testing (two main activities) and antibody screening and identification are also conducted

Considered as the most critical in the clinical laboratory •

Subdivided into 4 sections: Bacteriology, mycobacteriology, mycology and virology

Focus on blood testing for the determination of various coagulation factors.

DNA and RNA are identified and sequenced to detect any pathologic conditions/disease process.

Tissue (from biopsy or autopsy) processing, cutting into sections, staining and preparation for microscopic examination by a pathologist

specialized section of the laboratory that combines anatomical, clinical and biochemical techniques where antibodies (monoclonal and polyclonal) bound to enzymes and fluorescent dyes are used to detect presence of antigens in tissue.

Most common technique currently in use

Routine and other special examinations of urine such as macroscopic (color, transparency, SG, and ph level), microscopic (detect presence of abnormal cells and/or parasites as well as quantify red cells and WBC) and chemicals examination of the urine and detection and identification of parasitic worms and ova
