Teaching methods
The theoretical lessons are intended to provide the basic knowledge of instrumental techniques used in pharmaceutical analysis. During the laboratory activity the students will apply analytical procedures for identification and quantitation of active ingredients in pharmaceuticals.
Assessment methods
The assessment of learning will evaluate the
achievement of the educational objectives of teaching,
namely:
- The ability to apply the acquired theoretical and practical
knowledge related to the determination of the purity of active
ingredients and to the quality control of commercial
formulations;
- The ability to critically understand and apply the analytical
methods, including instrumental analytical methods, reported in the
Italian Official Pharmacopoeia and European Pharmacopoeia.
The exam will be performed at the end of the laboratory activity
and consists in a practical test on the achieved laboratory
practice; in addition the final oral examination will be performed.
The practical test has unlimited validity; the students should
positively perform the practical lab test before the oral
exam.
Teaching tools
The theoretical lessons will be held by using slides.
The lab activity will be carried out in laboratories equipped with specific reagents and analytical instrumentation (potentiometer, conductimeter, UV spectrophotometer, HPLC apparatus, etc.), suitable for the drug quality control.
