Contents
The course is focused on the analytical methods for drugs registered in the Official Italian Pharmacopoeia, in the European Pharmacopoeia and in the International Pharmacopoeia. The lectures are focused on the rational path, on chemical assays and on instrumental analytical techniques that allow to confirm a pharmaceutical substance in accordance with the corresponding official monograph. The course thus deals with qualitative and quantitative instrumental analytical techniques, such as, polarimetry, refractometry, IR spectroscopy, UV-vis spectrophotometry and HPLC chromatography. The laboratory exercises are designed with the aim of fixing the theoretical concepts through their practical application.

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 quality control of 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).

Learning verification modality
Lab practical exam and oral exam. Lab practical exam is done as lab experiments concerning the analysis of 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 (esse3) is nedeed.
