Course objectives
Aim of the course is an enhancement of knowledge level acquired in lectures on Environmental Analytical Chemistry. Part engaged in organic contaminants (A. Hrdlička) deals mainly with contemporary techniques of sample preparation and with techniques hyphenating high performance separation with specific detection. Problems of treatment of individual kinds of environmental samples are discussed too. In the part on inorganic contaminants (J. Komárek) requirements for trace inorganic analysis are introduced and, further, flow injection analysis, speciation of elements by electrochemical methods and by gas chromatography, applications of liquid chromatography and other techniques are discussed.
