Annotation -

Lab training is designed for works whose result would be few tens of milligrams (ca 50 mg) of pure compound which is a sufficient amount for chemical characterization. The intention is to learn to work with small amounts and with special equipment and labware as is usual for research work isolating compounds of natural origin.
