Course content
Methods of detection and identification of organic compounds in environemental samples, biological probesand technological mixtures are studied. These methods are based on mass-spectrometric (MS) analysis in conjunction with preliminary separation gas chromatography, liquid chromatography and capilary electrophoresis. The approaches and practical aspects of above methods application for wide range of analytical tasks in the fields of ecological monitoring, forensics, doping analysis, biochemical studies and authentication of products are concidered.
