Course objectives
Seminars are complementary to Medical chemistry lecture (VSLC011p). The knowledge of general, inorganic, and (bio)organic chemistry, required in the end of VCLC011p, is thoroughly practiced during Medical chemistry seminars.
Syllabus
  • The properties of single particles, mole and molar quantities. Concentration of solutions, basic laboratory calculations.
  • Test (Basic laboratory calculus.). Reaction kinetics, the law of chem. equilibrium.
  • Energy in chemical reactions, free energy and equilibrium, relationship between standard free energy change and equilibrium constant. English (and some Latin) names of inorganic compounds.
  • Dissociation of weak and strong electrolytes, activity of ions, ionic strength, osmolality.
  • Test (Reaction kinetics, thermodynamics of chemical changes, solutions of electrolytes; nomenclature of inorganic compounds).
  • Protolytic reactions, pH of acid, base, and salt solutions, buffers, calculations.
  • Oxidation-reduction, electrode potential, electrochemical cell potential and the free energy change.
  • Test (Acid-base reactions, oxidation and reduction).
  • Chemical properties of characteristic groups of carbon compounds, Part 1.
  • Chemical properties of characteristic groups of carbon compounds, Part 2.
  • Test (Organic compounds, nomenclature, structures, reactions). Heterocyclic compounds and their derivatives. Alkaloids.
  • Intermolecular forces and adsorption. Adsorption and liquid chromatography.
  • Chemistry of saccharides.
  • Test (Heterocycles, saccharides. Adsorption and chromatography). Chemistry of lipids and steroids.
  • Properties of amino acids. Proteins, secondary and tertiary structures.
  • Test (Summary).

Teaching methods
Class discussions based of materials in the seminar textbook.
Assessment methods
Conditions for giving the course-unit credit: First condition is full attendance in all lessons (or making up all missing and justified lessons). Five short tests are written during the semester. The total number of questions in all tests is 64, each correct answer is counted as one point. Students that will obtain 49 points or more during the semester are not obliged to write the credit test. The other students will write the credit test with the 30 questions in the last week of the semester. Students that will not fulfill this limit will be allowed to repeat the test once. Remedial dates for writing the credit test will be scheduled. Students that will not fulfill this requirement will not be given the course-unit credit. Obtaining of course-unit credits of practices and seminars is the pre-requisite for registration to the examination of Medical chemistry and for enrollment of Biochemistry in the Spring semester.
