Course Biochemistry – Tissular Metabolism
Course coordinator: Lecturer PhD. Dumitrița RUGINĂ
Laboratory coordinator: Lecturer PhD. Dumitrița RUGINĂ
General ojective of the discipline: Basics aspects of clinical biochemistry involved in animal pathology and relevant biochemical parameters from clinical veterinary medicine.
Course– 28 hours/ semester
The course contains theoretical biochemical information and practical applications for animal pathologies, useful in veterinary medical practice for diagnosis and treatment. Biochemical pathways are presented according to their localization in tissues/ organs. Short analysis sessions, multiple choice tests and debates about clinical cases with their test reports are provided during the course.
Laboratory – 14 hours/ semester
Each laboratory follow:
- Reading a test report
- Issue for a biochemical parameter analysis
- Compliance with a working protocol
- Analysis and interpretation of results
- Framing the results in a pathology
Performance standard
Theoretical information about the most relevant biochemical pathways, presented according to their localization in a certain tissue/ organ and their associated pathologies. Knowledge of biochemical parameters used for diagnosis in veterinary medicine. Critical analysis of a test report. Analysis of a biochemical parameter - method of analysis, protocol, interpretation of the results, framig the results in pathology.
Type of evaluation
Submitting a written material, containing the presentation of a clinical case with the critical analysis of its test report and the detailed description of the biochemical parameters involved, all in a complete picture of the associated pathology.

Veterinary mycology
Course coordinator: Conf Dr. Magdas Cristian
Mycology is a branch of biology that thorough studies the representatives of Kingdom Fungi, uni - and multicellular organisms, called also as mushrooms.
The practical importance of the study and knowledge, ensue from the fact that they can have both beneficial (decomposers, production of antibiotics, vitamins, active principles used in medicine, source of food) and harmful role to animals, humans or plants (parasitism, elimination of toxins, allergies).
The course of Veterinary Mycology aimes to approach the main representatives of Fungi Kingdom, involved in both the beneficial effects on animals and especially fungi involved in animal pathology, or having a zoonotic potential.
The course will describe notions like taxonomy, morphology, biology of fungi, also will highlight the main fungal diseases of animals and the ones with zoonotic potential.
During the practical works, will be studied methods of fungal identification and methods of diagnostic in fungal diseases.

Laboratory animal biology, breeding and pathology
Course coordinator: Conf.Dr. Sevastre Bogdan
Animal experiments are highly controversial our days, the present lecture is dedicated to both those who are against or agree with the animal experiments, because it provides the basic knowledge in the area of laboratory animal (LA) science, including the biology and pathology of the most common species used for experimental purpose. The lecture is focused on laboratory animal welfare, clinic and laboratory diagnostic, but not about experimental models which is the area of experimental pathology.
Lectures include:
Advantages and limitations of experiments on animals
Ethics and regulation in the area of laboratory animal science.
The 3R: Replacement, Reduction, Refinement.
The general principles of housing of LA, including non conventional animals.
The second part of the lecture will be focused on the particularities the most common species of LA including small rodents (rats, mice, hamsters, gerbils and Guinea pig), rabbits, carnivores (dog, cat and ferret) and monkeys.
Laboratories include:
Principles on handling of various species of LA, anatomical particularities of LA, blood sampling, administration of drugs on different routes, anesthesia and pain management in LA. Particularities of LA hematology will be also detailed. No experiments on living animals or any procedures that may cause pain or distress will be carried out on the laboratory classes.
Evaluation includes two tests (multiple choice questions), the activity in the lecture and laboratory will be also considered to final mark. The students which are willing to improve their mark will have the opportunity to present bibliographical studies relate to LA science.
