Excel in Clinical Chemistry – One of the ASCPi MLS Exam Core 4
Clinical Chemistry is a cornerstone subject of the ASCPi Medical Laboratory Scientist (MLS) certification exam, recognized as one of the “Core 4” disciplines essential for exam success. At TriumphClass, our Clinical Chemistry course is purposefully designed to empower international Medical Laboratory Professionals with the critical knowledge, analytical skills, and confidence needed to excel on the first attempt.
This course is fully aligned with the ASCP Board of Certification (BOC) content outline, using only the officially recommended textbooks and study guide questions—including carefully selected practice materials modeled after past ASCP-BOC questions. All notes, slides, and interactive content are prepared exclusively from ASCP-approved sources to ensure precise, exam-relevant learning. We strongly advise students to study only from these validated resources for the best outcomes.
By the end of this course, you will have developed solid proficiency in clinical analyte testing, result interpretation, quality assurance, automation and instrumentation, and disease correlation. You’ll gain the expertise to confidently tackle topics ranging from metabolic panels and endocrine testing to toxicology, therapeutic drug monitoring, and point-of-care technologies.
With this foundation, you’ll be well-prepared to not only pass the Clinical Chemistry section of the ASCP exam—but to achieve a score that reflects your true potential.
Let TriumphClass help you turn preparation into certification success.

LIPIDS AND LIPOPROTEINS
Lipoproteins are typically spherical in shape and range in size from as small as 10 nm to more than 1 μm. As the name implies, lipoproteins are composed of both lipids and proteins, called apolipoproteins.

ENZYMES OF CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE
Enzymes catalyze physiologic reactions by lowering the activation energy level that the reactants (substrates) must reach for the reaction to occur.
Clinically significant enzymes are: (Oxidoreductases, Transferases, Hydrolases, Lyases, Isomerases, Ligases.
