advanced knowledge of english to extent required in the study
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
Course objectives
main objective of the course is to acquaint students with separation methods based on equilibrium separation between two phases.
another objective of the course is to provide this knowledge in english in order to improve students' language skills
Learning outcomes
at the end of the course students should be able:
to manage general principles of analytical separation and its description to manage principles of equilibrium separation between two phases to describe and explain basic separation modes using following phase systems - liquid-liquid, solid-liquid, solid-gas, liquid-gas to describe and explain principles and practical spects of liquid and gas chromatography.
Syllabus
  • 1. introduction to separation: separation of two ideally miscible compounds, separation limits, separation methods classification – preparative, analytical, basic principles of separation – molecular equilibrium, intermolecular interactions, entropy.
  • 2. extraction: description of extraction equilibria in system liquid-liquid and in system liquid-solid; choice of extraction system, carry-out of extraction, influence of analyte-solvent interaction, repeated extraction
  • 3. preanalytical sample preparation: CCE (counter-current extraction), SFE (supercritical fluid extraction); ASE (accelerated solvent extraction); MAE (microwave assisted extraction), SPE (solid phase extraction); SPME (solid phase microextraction), HSE (head-space extraction)
  • 4. analytical separation: chromatography, basic techniques (frontal, displacement, elution), theoretical principles – column equilibrium, physico-chemical description of processes on LC, kinetic and thermodynamic aspects of separation.
  • 5. study and description of separation; quantitative relations between structure and selectivity in regard to retention; liquid chromatography (LC) – history, theoretical ground; classification of basic separation mechanisms in LC (LLC, LSC, IEC), LC arrangement: mobile phase delivery, elution and elution force (isocratic and gradient); injection devices; separation column, types of stationary phases (particle, monolithic, on-chip), overview of sorbents;
  • 6. detectors photometric (DAD), refractometric, fluorescence, amperometric, conductivity, light-scattering, mass spectrometric, derivatisation and sample collection. description and evaluation of separation results: defining the chromatographic system, analytical information in chromatogram (qualitative, quantitative); precision, accuracy, limits of analysis (MDL, LOD, LOQ); evaluation of separation efficiency, testing of the system and its “good” behaviour;
  • 7. basic LC modes: CCC (counter-current chromatography), NP-HPLC (normal phase liquid chromatography), RP-HPLC (reverse phase liquid chromatography), TLC (thin-layer chromatography, HPTLC 2D TLC), ultra-high performance chromatography, high temperature liquid chromatography, elevated-temperature ultra-high performance chromatography, hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC), ERLIC, hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC),
  • 8. IEC (ion exchange chromatography) – principles and carry-out, IXC (ion exclusion chromatography), chromatofocusation; affinity chromatography – principles, IMAC (immobilised-metal affinity chromatography); SFC (supercritical fluid chromatography); PC (perfusion chromatography);
  • 9. multi-dimensional chromatography: interface and principles; hyphenated separation techniques; preparative chromatography: methods (system scale-up, system overloading), fraction collection,
  • 10. gas chromatography (GC): history, differences between LC and GC (isotherms, gas compressibility, retention quantities), GC arrangement, mobile phase delivery; injection device (split, splitless); separation column, stationary phase types (WCOT, FSOT, SCOT, PLOT), column thermostat, detectors (flame ionisation, chemiluminescence, mass spectrometric detectors, etc.), GC system definition, GC evaluation and testing.

Teaching methods
the lecture, either offline or online, is based on ppt presentation and its explication. presentations itself will be available in both, czech & english, as a study materials (black-and-white printable pdf with high resolution and restricted access rights). it is recommended to attend the lecture, because of the explication, which significantly extends the presentation and because there are no available textbooks in czech language covering certain parts of the subject.
during the course, students will be given voluntary, ungraded, but corrected, time-saving tasks to consolidate the acquired knowledge.
Assessment methods
oral examination, either online of offline, will be conducted in czech, eventually, when agreed, in english; students are required to understand and to be familiar with the principles and their applications. examination consists of three basic questions, which would be during the examination expanded to let the student demonstrate the extent of topic understanding.
alternatively, due to the circumstances, it is possible to pass the course in the form of a written work containing four practical tasks for which the student will have 6 hours.

Teacher's information
videocon lectures will take place in the MS teams environment. if possible, download the environment application. all MU students have access to it via office 365, see "external services" in IS. i recommend learning to work with the application in advance. the use of a browser version restricts your access to some useful functions. the lecture will be recorded in mp4 format and then uploaded in the study materials in IS.
