Annotation -
This course is focused on the methods used in the analysis of drugs, especially on methods that are not discussed in other subjects (Physical Chemistry and Analytical Chemistry). The principles of the mentioned methods will be described, including their practical applications and samples of sample analysis records. Emphasis will be placed on the distinction between polymorphs and amorphous, as well as individual polymorphs from each other. At the end of the subject, the legislation related to polymorphic and amorphous states from the point of view of patent protection will be mentioned, as well as the currently used methods of searching for solid forms of active pharmaceutical ingredients.

Requirements to the exam -

The course ends with a written exam.

1. The written exam lasts 30 minutes.

2. The student registers for the exam through the Study Information System (SIS) and it is the student's responsibility to register by the deadline specified here. Deregistration from the exam is possible until the date specified in the SIS, later only with the examiner, and only for serious reasons. In case of non-participation and non-registration, the term is forfeited and is classified as "F".

3. If you arrive late for the written exam, the examiner may allow you to write the paper, but the missed time will not be compensated.

4. During the exam, it is not allowed to leave the room and use unauthorized aids, including telecommunication devices.

5. The place and time of publication of the results of the written exam will be announced during the written exam. The examiner will determine when and where the written work will be available for inspection. If the student does not appear on this date, he gives up the opportunity to view the assessment.

6. The student has the right to a maximum of two correction dates.
