Oral Exam. The final evaluation also takes into account the results achieved in laboratory exercises.
Course program
Fronctal lectures: Purification and separation of active ingredients: crystallization, sublimation, distillation, extraction methodologies (solid-liquid extraction, liquid-liquid extraction), solid phase extraction (SPE, SPME).
Chromatography: classification of the various techniques, separation theory, efficiency of a chromatographic system. Thin layer chromatography. Gaschromatography and HPLC: technical and application aspects.
Application of some spectroscopic techniques in the analysis: UV, IR, 1HNMR
Introduction to mass spectrometry.
EXERCISES: Crystallization of an unknown sample; extraction of caffeine from coca cola by liquid-liquid extraction and by SPE solid phase extraction; separation of a binary mixture; analgesic drugs analysis by TLC; recognition of mixture components by TLC; water sample analysis by ion exchange chromatography
