Saldanha C., Santos N., Martins-Silva J.Details of Laboratory Work for Medical Students
In the modern world of pandemics, a special place is occupied by the problems of education in the fi eld of medicine. In developed countries, medical education remains combined. Practical training of students in the laboratories of the uni- versity is very important. The article describes a biochemistry laboratory class protocol. This protocol is described in order to create an opportunity for students to apply by doing the theoretical concepts underlying biomolecules and vesicles proper- ties, together with the principles of centrifugation and colorimetric methodol- ogies. The aims, objectives, methodology of teaching/learning, and assessment for this laboratory class are indicated. The proposed protocol for a laboratory class described us creates the opportunity for undergraduate students to per- form experiments, to reason, and to discuss some related biochemical concepts, namely protein characterization and properties of specifi c staining reactions; en- zyme quantifi cation by enzymatic reaction; composition and biochemical prop- erties of exovesicles; amphiphilic biomolecules properties; and principles and applications of centrifugation methods. This work was supported by Portuguese Ministry of Science and Higher Education (MCES).
