Base Knowledge
Laboratory techniques in Pharmacy, organic chemistry and inorganic chemistry
Teaching Methodologies
Expository lectures with audiovisual and interactive resources between student and teacher, with
use of theoretical-practical lessons to reinforce the understanding of theoretical syllabus
Students will be monitored throughout each semester with questions as a complement of
education.
Are offered two hours per week, with pre-defined schedule with the student.
Are also delivered to each student teaching holders of all matter taught or bibliographical
references recommended for discipline, at the beginning of the semester.
Learning Results
The curricular unit of analytical chemistry in pharmacy I aims to provide the student an adequate
knowledge of theoretical principles, practices and application components of instrumental
methods of analysis, essential to the performance of laboratory activities, having as main
objective the application of new technologies in the area of Pharmacy, your validation, as well as
in the area of investigation.
Also wants to enable and empower the learner on programming steps of developing an analytical
method, as well as in the selection of this, in the face of specific requirements, such as:
specificity, sensitivity, detection limit, selectivity, reproducibility and matrix interference, defining
further indicates the factors that lead to the choice of a particular method of analysis.
Competencies to develop:
-Understanding of the nature, objectives and applications of instrumental methods of analysis;
-Acquisition of knowledge and skills in the application of analytical methods in solving analytical
problems;
– Ability to define/select experiences and procedures in obtaining results;
-Ability to identify the conditions of applicability of various quantitative and qualitative analytical
methods;
-Determination of the concentration of various analytes by classical methods and instruments;
– Ability to handle and interpret analytical results.
