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. Explains the biochemical changes that occur in disease processes and provides rationale for applying this understanding in diagnosis and treatmentFeatures chapter contributions from leading researchers and cliniciansIncludes a substantial appendix to quickly identify the reference ranges for a large number of animal species?
