This ASCP Exam 2026/2027 study guide contains 100+ concise exam questions and answers designed for review of major medical laboratory science concepts. The nine-page document covers clinical microbiology, hematology, immunology and serology, clinical chemistry, blood banking and immunohematology, urinalysis, mycology, parasitology, coagulation, molecular testing and laboratory procedures. Examples include Klebsiella oxytoca and K. pneumoniae, Malassezia furfur, Aeromonas hydrophila, Yersinia, Bacillus anthracis, Eikenella, Leptospira, blood-group phenotypes, antibody characteristics, cardiac biomarkers, lipoproteins, renal findings and endocrine testing.
The clinical chemistry and hematology material reviews topics such as creatinine clearance, HbA1c, LDL, VLDL and chylomicrons, bilirubin testing, amylase and lipase, SIADH, Cushing syndrome, cortisol, tumor markers, liver and bone enzymes, G6PD deficiency, Heinz bodies, Sézary cells, stomatocytes, burr cells, protein C and S, Factor V Leiden and May-Hegglin–associated findings. The document also includes laboratory associations for renal, hepatic, pancreatic, skeletal-muscle and inflammatory conditions, helping students connect laboratory results with potential clinical interpretations.
Blood banking and immunohematology are represented through Rh immune globulin calculations, Lewis phenotypes, Kell antigen frequency, antibody dosage, enzyme effects on blood-group antigens, H-antigen strength, rouleaux resolution and blood-storage concepts. Microbiology and mycology questions cover organism identification using biochemical reactions, motility, morphology, culture characteristics and stains, while immunology questions address IgE, hypersensitivity, ANA patterns, SLE, Sjögren syndrome, scleroderma, CREST syndrome and RAST testing. The final section additionally reviews PCR steps and organ-specific enzyme patterns.
Relevant students: This document is most relevant to ASCP certification candidates, Medical Laboratory Scientist (MLS) students, Medical Laboratory Technician (MLT) students, clinical laboratory science students, medical technology students, biomedical laboratory science students, and graduates reviewing multidisciplinary laboratory concepts for certification examinations. It is particularly suited to rapid recall and question-based revision because the material is organized as short prompts followed by direct answers.
