Chemistry
Faculty of Science
Introduction to the analytical processes and instrumentation that are used in modern analytical chemistry. Topics covered include: the analytical method (what is it and what it encompasses); review of analytical protocols; data analysis and presentation, signal, noise, sensitivity and detection limits; calibration; separations (solid phase extraction, molecularly imprinted polymers, immunoaffinity separations, supercriticial fluid separations); chromatography (gas chromatography, liquid chromatography and others); mass spectrometry; atomic speciation methods such as atomic absorption (AA), atomic emission (AE) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP) spectroscopies. Laboratory component involves experiments with these techniques.
