Student discovers state of the art in theory, technical development and application of instrumental methods in analytical chemistry. Understanding theory and using knowledge concerning instruments student is able to discuss optimization of methods, to interpret data, and to use them in a context of a solved problem. He/she criticaly evaluates and compares advantages and disadvatagesof methods. Student is able to select a method suitable for an analytical task. The following areas are discussed (concerning a topic of disserattion thesis): 1) Separation analytical methods - preconcentration techniques; theory of chromatographic process; gas chromatography; liquid chromatography; supercritical fluid chromatography; electromigration techniques; hyphenation of separation and spectral techniques. 2) Optical and spectral methods - emission methods (optical emission spectrometry, flame spectrometry, atomic fluorescence spectrometry, X- ray fluorescence, fluorimetry, phosphorimetry); absorption methods (atomic absorption spectrometry, molecular absorption spectrometry in UV/VIS, IR, Mössbauer spectroscopy); nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance; scattering (turbidimetry, nephelometry, Raman spectroscopy); polarized light (polarimetry, circual dichroism); methods of electron spectroscopy (XPS, Auger), electron microscopy. 3) Mass spectrometry. 4) Electroanalytical methods - potentiometry; polarographic and voltametric techniques; chronopotentiometry; titration with polarized electrodes; electrogravimetry; coulometry; conduction methods. 5) Applied analysis - sampling and sample treatment (inorganic and organic materials), conversion of samples into solution; structural analysis and identification of organic compounds; analysis of metals, metallic alloys, silicates, water and soil samples; analysis of environmental pollutants; analytical chemistry in agricultural laboratories; analysis of foodstuff; analysis of biological samples of animal and plant origin; pharmaceutical anaylsis; analysis of objects of cultural heritage.
