Deadline for submission: Saturday, 19thMay 2012
The objective of the Summer schools is to give advanced students in chemistry and technology practical instructions to conduct instrumental analysis according to the current state of art. In order to improve the quality of education and research activities, a series of lectures and corresponding experimental work for students from South-Eastern Europe Universities will be organized.
Two Summer schools, each a week long, will be held at the Faculty of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, University of Maribor, R. Slovenia, and at the Faculty of Technology, University of Novi Sad, R. Serbia with following subjects of applied spectroscopy:
Application of GC and UV-VIS methods for terpenes, pesticides and anthocyanins determinations in wine
Faculty of Technology and Metallurgy, University "Ss. Cyril and Methodius", Skopje, R. Macedonia
Application will be available in 2013
During the course, wine samples, taken from the winery, will be prepared by SPE and LLE for analysis of terpenes and pesticides by GC. UV-VIS technique will be used for determination of the colored components i.e. anthocyanins in wine samples applying pH-differential method. Preparation and presentation of reports concerning to the practical work will be made. Lectures will be given to introduce the analytical techniques, as well as the wine components that are subject of investigation.
GC-MS application in the area of soil and water contamination with traces of hydrocarbons and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and identification of fatty acid methyl esters in vegetable oil
Faculty of Technology, University of Novi Sad, R. Serbia
From 15th – 22nd July 2012
Within the course, sampling, in situ measurements, sample preparations with LLE and SPE, the GC-MS qualitative and quantitative trace determinations of hydrocarbons and PAHs in soil and water, as well as FAMEs identification in vegetable oil, together with evaluation of methods, preparation of reports and presentations, will be made. Theoretical aspects of the course subject will be covered with lectures.
HPLC application in the area of food constituents (caffeine and catechines) and toxin (coumarin) determinations
University of Maribor, Faculty of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Slovenia
From 08th – 15th July 2012
Within the course, sampling, in situ measurements, sample preparations with LLE, SLE and SFE, the HPLC determination of caffeine, catechines and coumarin, SFC determination of caffeine, together with evaluation of methods, preparation of reports and presentation, will be made.Theoretical aspects of the course subject will be covered with lectures.
Application of atomic spectrometric (AS) and molecular vibrational (IR- and Raman) methods for trace element determinations (Cd, As, Pb) and component analysis in pharmaceutical products (analgetics, N-acetyl cysteine, their polymorphs and trade mixture with caffeine and vitamin C) and waters
Faculty of Chemistry, University of Sofia “St. Kl. Ohridski”, Bulgaria
Application will be available in 2013.
Within the course, sampling, experimental sample preparation of the solid binary mixtures of trade pharmaceutical products, their qualitative and quantitative determination, as well as analysis of the trade products by means of AS, IR- and Raman will be made. Theoretical aspects of the course subject will be covered with lectures.
According to the Bologna declaration credit points 3 will be granted for each Summer school.
The Programs for each Summer school are available (click at the Logo of each University at the Cover page)
The working language of the Summer schools is English.
