ELECTROPHORESIS/SEROLOGY SEGMENT OVERVIEW

The Electrophoresis/Serology clinical rotation segment consists of six (6) days of bench work. Whatever procedures that the students are performing on any day will need to be checked off in the bench and competency record checklist (found in Clinical Practicum III) and will be evaluated by the CI (“S” Satisfactory or “U” Unsatisfactory) for the bench work performed.

Homework consists of two sets of study questions. Case studies are also provided for additional practice, however these do not need to be turned in. There are textbooks and procedure materials available to students to find useful information to complete the study questions. Students may want to refer to last years junior notes for additional help. Homework should be finished before the last day of clinical rotation.

On the last day of the rotation, students will take a final exam. Questions will come from the study questions homework and from junior year materials. Exam questions will be mostly of multiple choice format.

On the last day students will also turn in the study questions, completed Bench and Performance record and the student’s Evaluations forms to the Section coordinator.
