Annotation -
The aim of this laboratory course is independent skilled work in food analytical laboratory (i.e., among other things, to specify the submitted job in detail, plan and organize laboratory work, choose and validate suitable analytical methods, realize analysis, ensure the quality of results and elaborate and interpret the obtained results). To attainment this aim, a group of students solves a complex project relating to food quality control (within the range of parameters defined by legal regulations, determinable using the standard analytical methods). In contrast to the previous laboratory courses students work more independently, the submitted projects are more complex, instrumental analytical methods are used and students pay larger attention to the methods validation.
