Objectives

The main objectives are: 1) learning the application of different chromatographic techniques; 2) learning the sample preparation techniques; 3) understanding the qualitative and quantitative analytical chemistry.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge in Chemistryand Organic Chemistry.

Basic knowledge of statistics.

Subject matter

Instrumentation: HPLC, GC, GC/MS and 2D-GC - basic components and how to use.

Sample preparation: SPE, SPME, liquid extraction, lyophilization, dryness and derivatization.

Analytical method validation.

Teaching method

Theoretical subjects are presented and explained to students in lectures (1h / week).

 Practical lectures, 2.5h/week in a working group.

It will be involved: GC, HPLC (LC-UV, LC-FLD, LC-UV-Vis), sample preparation methods (including classic methods, SPE and SPME). Introduction to multidimensional methods (comprehensive GCxGC and heart-cut MD-GC)

 

Evaluation method

1 theoretical test(individualy): 20%

1 Oral presentation (group): 40%

1 Report in article format (group): 40%

In case of a negative weighted average final evaluation (less then 9.5 in 20) the final mark will be obtained through exam where the obtained mark will be considered as a whole (100%).

The frequency discipline is mandatory. Derives 70% attendance in lectures and attendance at all practical classe
