Clinical Biochemistry of Domestic Animals (7th Ed.)
Coordonnateurs : O'Brien Peter J, Archer Joy, Paltrinieri Saverio, Polizopoulou Zoe S., Ceron Jose Joaquin
Clinical Biochemistry of Domestic Animals, Seventh Edition cements this book?s position as a standard text in its field, covering all aspects of biochemical abnormalities in domestic animals caused by various diseases. Here, across more than thirty chapters, leading researchers and pathologists provide accessible overviews and in-depth analysis of biochemical changes in the blood, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, joint fluids, other body fluids, and in cells impacting the health of domestic animals. Readers gain a full and nuanced understanding of biochemical changes underlying disease processes and learn to apply knowledge towards diagnosis and treatment. This new edition has been updated to address recent advances in the field, with all-new chapters on evolving technologies, big data approaches in research and clinical practice, clinical pathology profiles, translational biomarkers and biomarker validation, exotic animals, myocardial function, and tissue and body fluid biochemistry.

After gaining masters and PhD degrees in biochemistry followed by post-doctoral research experience, Dr. Joy Archer spent many years doing laboratory and animal based medical research and teaching biochemistry to medical students. When Joy changed profession to veterinary medicine, she chose to specialize in clinical pathology and pathology as they are laboratory medicine-based specialisms. Joy’s academic positions have involved teaching veterinary and graduate students, diagnostic services, laboratory management and clinical related research. Joy was a founding Diplomate of European College of Veterinary Clinical Pathology (ECVCP) and a past president of the ECVCP. In 2013, she was awarded honorary Fellowship of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, and in 2015 she was awarded the European Society for Veterinary Clinical Pathology Hall of Fame Award, both for her services to Veterinary Clinical Pathology.
Dr. Saverio Paltrinieri is a Full Professor of Pathology at the Department of Veterinary Medicine (Dimevet), University
- Explains the biochemical changes that occur in disease processes and provides rationale for applying this understanding in diagnosis and treatment
- Features chapter contributions from leading researchers and clinicians
- Includes a substantial appendix to quickly identify the reference ranges for a large number of animal species?
