Description

The objective of the course is to present a survey of analytical chemistry and instrumental analyses. The class begins with an introduction/refresher/review of the laboratory including safety, glassware, basic math, data treatment (statistics), graphing and Excel, lab solutions, acid base theory and titrations. A section is also devoted to the introduction and use of an example of a typical laboratory LIMS program. The course then quickly moves to the theory and application of analytical techniques such as spectroscopy including UV/Vis, fluorescence, FTIR, NMR, and metals analyses including AAS, AMS, XRF and XRD, and then chromatography including HPLC, SPE, TLC, GLC, GC-MS, SCX and CE. The course then completes with a short survey of modern mass spectrometry. The course includes the use of two working programs, the first an example of a typical laboratory LIMS used for sample logging and data input, and the second is a chemist and technicians toolkit used for numerous applications in the lab, for teaching, and for review.

This course includes a software dowload for the Chem-Tech-Toolkit and a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) program. The ChemTech program serves as a reference for chemists and technicians and as a teaching guide for lab technicians. The toolkit is accompanied by a textbook, Analytical Chemistry: A Chemist and Laboratory Technician's Toolkit 1st Edition. The software and textbook are included in the cost of tuition. When you register for this course, we will ship the book to you. If you withdraw from the course, cost of the book is non-refundable.
