Annotation -
This course is focused on understanding the principles of modern operating procedures and bioanalytical methods that are used in the analysis of complex biological samples for the determination of various analytes in biological matrix. The basis of this subject is to introduce the student to modern instrumental analytical methods for isolation, identification and determination of biologically important compounds.
