Learning outcomes
At the end of the course the student will acquire basic knowledge and applications of methods in chemical analysis and bio-analytical chemistry of substances, materials and their interactions of interest in cosmetic sciences that will include advanced techniques in mass spectrometry, vibrational spectroscopy, combined chromatography, imaging, sensors and biosensors.
Course contents
- Analytical methods based on the use of biospecific probes (enzymes, antibodies, chimeric antibodies, nanobodies, non-antibody binding proteins, molecular imprinted polymers, aptamers, DNA, RNA, PNA) for the recognition of the target analyte.
Transduction and / or detection systems (optics, plasmonics, electrochemistry, piezoelectrics, mechanics) used in bioanalytical methods.
Development of biosensors and integrated microfluidic systems based on bioanalytical methods.
- Electronic nose: operating principles, classification and application of machine learning algorithms for the recognition of specific odour patterns.
Readings/Bibliography
Daniel C. Harris: "Chimica analitica quantitativa" - 3rd edition by Zanichelli (2017)
Holler, Skoog, Crouch: "Principle of Instrumental Analysis" 7th edition by Brooks/Cole Pub Co (2017).
Teaching methods
Lectures in which the topics of the course are presented and discussed, with practical examples.
Assessment methods
The assessment of learning takes place through the final exam, which ascertains the acquisition of the expected knowledge and skills through an oral interview on the entire program.
The evaluation criteria is based on the demonstration by the student of knowing how to use and apply the knowledge, information and cultural tools provided by the course. The threshold of sufficiency of learning is represented in particular by the demonstration of critical understanding and the ability to discuss the topics of the course.
To take the exam, registration is required through Almaesami, in compliance with the deadlines provided for. You are encouraged to unsubscribe if not interested in taking the exam. The cancellation must be done before closing the list.
