    Clinical chemistry is generally concerned with analysis of bodily fluids for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. It is an applied form of biochemistry. This workbook is designed as a companion manual to the 4th edition of Clinical Chemistry: Theory, Analysis, Correlation by Kaplan and Pesce. It should be used as an integral part of a complete medical technology program. However, students of Clinical Chemistry will find that it is also a valuable study guide for preparing the certification examination. It allows the student to assess areas of weakness in basic facts, laboratory concepts, and clinical application, and to turn immediately to the necessary pages in Kaplan and Pesce for review.
