COURSE OVERVIEW

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Ultraviolet (UV) and Visible (VIS) Spectrophotometer Fundamentals. It covers the fundamentals of spectrophotometry and components of a UV-Vis spectrophotometer; the types of UV-Vis spectrophotometers and sample preparation techniques; the basics of spectral data interpretation and safety and good laboratory practices (GLP); the working principle of UV-Vis spectrophotometry and wavelength selection and optimization; and the calibration and standardization of the instrument including spectral scanning and data acquisition. During this interactive course, participants will learn the factors affecting UV-Vis measurements and BeerLambert law applications; the quantitative analysis techniques, qualitative analysis with UV-Vis and derivative spectrophotometry; the kinetic and timedependent spectroscopy and UV-Vis in pharmaceutical analysis; the environmental and water analysis, food and beverage analysis and protein and nucleic acid analysis; the UV-Vis in material science and nanotechnology; and the data processing and statistical analysis, method validation and regulatory compliance.
