Course objectives
Subject is complementary to Medical chemistry lecture (VSLC011p). Students become familiar with the background and equipments of chemical laboratory. They will learn to perform simple laboratory operations. During experiments students verify some findings discussed in theoretical lessons.
Learning outcomes
Student will demonstrate understanding
- relationship between the composition of different solutions, beverages and body fluids and their pH value
- will be able to describe the general composition and role of the buffers, explain their function and apply this knowledge in explaining the role of buffering systems in the organism
- to describe the essence of the formation of insoluble and poorly soluble compounds, to identify factors that can influence the insolubility of compounds and to apply this knowledge when discussing the effect of mineralization of dental tissue
- Students will be able to handle with basal laboratory equipment and follow proper procedures and regulations for safe handling, use, and disposal of chemicals
Syllabus
  • Safety measures in chemical laboratory. Volumetric ware. Preparation of solutions.
  • Measuring pH of solutions (acids, bases, salts, saliva, beverages). Preparation of phosphate buffers.Determination of buffer capacity.
  • Formation of unsoluble salts, product of solubility.Reactions of phosphate and carbonate ions.Determination of phosphates after the demineralization of bone. Detection of selected ions in saliva.Corrosive properties of dental aloys.
Literature
    required literature
  • Instructions available in Information System.
Teaching methods
laboratory practicals
Assessment methods
Full attendance in all lessons (making up all missing and justified lessons), completion of all lab reports is the condition for the course-unit credit. Obtaining of course-unit credits of practicals is the pre-requisite for registration to the examination of Medical chemistry and for enrollment of Biochemistry in the Spring semester.
Language of instruction
English
Further comments (probably available only in Czech)
The course is taught annually.
