Fulfilled examination in Analytical Chemistry I (N402002)

At least 10 students for the Laboratory course opening are required.

In the case of an alternative date announcement (10-12 students during summer examination period) in addition to fulfilled examination in Analytical Chemistry I the fulfilled examination in Food and Natural Products Analysis is required. Priority is given to students who fulfilled examination in Analytical Chemistry I in the period after the regular term of the Laboratory course.

Food Chemistry - N323001 a Analytical Chemistry I - N402002

The fulfillment of all tasks (except for doctor excused - only for two jobs) - minimum protocols grade: E, written midterm test (required)
