Course objectives
The Separation Analysis Methods aim to show DSP students modern methods of isolation of natural substances, especially chromatographic techniques. It deepens knowledge of both analytical and preparative separation of secondary metabolites, focusing on specific methods of division and detection. It shows the possibilities of so-called scale-up chromatographic systems, the specifics in the division of different types of substances, and the possibility of verifying the quality of the separation performed.
Learning outcomes
The ability to practically use all the available separation analytical methods, to control their theoretical basics.
Syllabus
  • Separation analytical methods is a subject showing the modern approaches for the isolation of natural compounds, namely using different chromatographic techniques. It shows possibilities of both analytical and preparative separation, including the scaling up of the methods. It is targeted on specifics of separation of different compounds, chromatographic systems, and also on the control of the quality of the separation process.
    1) analytical HPLC
    2) semipreparative HPLC
    3) analytical TLC
    4) preparative TLC
    5) column chromatography
    6) further separation techniques
