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.
Syllabus
  • Safety measures in chemical laboratory. Volumetric ware. Preparation of solutions.
  • Measuring pH of solutions (acids, bases, salts). The construction of titration curves.
  • Preparation of phosphate buffers. Titration of acetate buffer, buffer capacity.
  • Ions in tap water. Reactions of phosphate and carbonate ions.
  • Adsorption chromatography of azodyes (TLC). Column chromatography of carotenoids on aluminum oxide. HPLC (demonstration).
  • Oxidation of alcohols. Determination of alcohol in blood. Detection reactions for aldehydes and ketones. Molecular models of saccharides. Reducing properties of sugars and L-ascorbic acid.
  • Ionization of aminoacids. Colour reactions of aminoacids and proteins. Isoelectric point of casein. Solubility of proteins, precipitation of proteins.
Literature

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
Czech
