Liquid Chromatography mass spectrometry 1200-SZD-LCMS

The following problems are discussed during the lecture:
1. Fundamentals of High Performance Liquid Chromatography
2. Fundamentals of mass spectrometry
3. Analysers in Mass spectrometry (quadrupole, ion trap, time of flight etc)
4. Ionization modes in MS
5. Tandem mass spectrometry
7. Scans modes in MS (single ion monitoring, product ion scan, single reaction monitoring, neutral loss precursor ion scan etc)
8. Interpretation of mass spectrum
For each lecture, there is homework consisting of a set of tasks, a test, an animation, and a crossword puzzle. PhD students must complete it before the next lecture
Total workload: 35 hours
Including:
- Class participation: 15 hours
- Solving homework and quizzes: 10 hours
- Preparing an essay: 10 hours
