Annotation -
Students will obtain theoretical and practical knowledge of biochemical laboratory techniques, which are commonly used in research work. They will manage basic operations necessary for further routine work in biochemical laboratory. They will try wide spectrum of biochemical techniques, particularly in the area of biomolecules isolation and analysis of biological samples.
