Italian and European Pharmacopoeia. - Educational objectives
- Knowledge of basic and advanced analytical techniques to perform a quantitative analysis of a drug. Ability to recognize and to apply techniques and methodologies necessary for the development of a rational path that identifies a substance of pharmaceutical interest. Ability, based on experimental results, to interpret the information obtained and evaluate the results. Ability to use the specific language of this discipline and to present the results obtained and the methodologies used in a report clear, comprehensive and meaningful to describe the problem completely. Ability to update and expand their knowledge by consulting other library materials such as books and scientific publications.
- Prerequisites
- Knowledge of of the theoretical basis of Organic Chemistry (mandatory), Medicinal Chemistry (optional), Physical Methods in Organic Chemistry (mandatory) and Analytical Chemistry (important).
- Teaching methods
- Theoretical lessons and practical trainings. Attendance to the lessons and trainings is compulsory.
- Other information
- For practical trainings is mandatory to have passed the exam of "Metodi Fisici in Chimica Organica".

- Lab practical exam and oral exam. Lab practical exam is done as lab experiments concerning the recognition and identification of two solid substances listed in the European Pharmacopoeia. This exam is mandatory to access to the oral exam.
Oral exam: consisting of open questions about the theoretical and practical aspects of the course with the aim to assess the level of preparation, the knowledge and understanding of the student. Online registration is nedeed: https://unipg.esse3.cineca.it/Home.do. - Extended program
