- Course objectives
- At the end of the course, students should be able to:
- define fundamentals of chromatographic methods and describe them in the context with other separation analytical methods;
- understand and clarify principles of individual types of chromatography and functional layout of chromatographic instrumentation, their individual parts and detecting elements;
- explain theoretical aspects and mechanisms of chromatographic separation and principles of choice of chromatographic systems;
- asses and interpret results of chromatographic analyses;
- evaluate significance of connection of chromatographic methods with various analytical techniques, especially with spectral methods;
- take advantage of chromatography in quantitative and qualitative analyses of various types of samples; - Syllabus

- Teaching methods
- Education is performed as lectures with Powerpoint presentation. Understanding of mechanisms and consequences is emphasized. Students are frequently asked questions to think about actual topic. They are encouraged to ask questions and be in interaction with the lecturer.
- Assessment methods
- Attendance of the lectures is not mandatory but strongly recommended for fluent understanding of the educated subjects. Final assessment (at the end of semester) is by oral examination. Tree related topics are the content of the discussion during oral examination.
- Language of instruction
- English
- Follow-Up Courses
- Further comments (probably available only in Czech)
- Study Materials
The course can also be completed outside the examination period.
The course is taught each semester.
The course is taught: every week.
