Overview
Focused, streamlined, and designed throughout to meet the needs of the one-term GOB Lab course, this manual features 14 easy-to-follow experiments (6 general chemistry, 4 organic chemistry, and 4 biochemistry) that illustrate the key concepts that every allied health student must know. Clear directions help students complete labs successfully, while pre- and post-lab questions for every experiment test their ability to apply concepts.
- DESIGNED FOR NURSING AND HEALTH SCIENCE MAJORS. Focusing on the key concepts most important to allied health majors, this streamlined lab manual is ideal for the one-term General, Organic, and Biochemistry laboratory course.
- CLEAR AND STRAIGHTFORWARD. Clear directions help students complete labs successfully.
- A FOCUS ON APPLICATION. Pre- and post-lab questions for every experiment test the student's ability to understand and apply concepts.
- OPTIONS. Many labs include multiple equipment and technique options to provide instructors with a wide range of possibilities to suit their lab.
- Labs have been updated with the most recent data and values in order to accurately reflect the changes in lab courses. Experiments 2 and 12 have been heavily revised, and includes new art.
