The course provides an introduction to instrumental analysis and its applications in pharmaceutical sciences. The course focuses on spectroscopy and spectral methods of analysis, including Ultraviolet/visible radiation (UV/Visible), Infra-Red (IR), Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), and Mass Spectrometry (MS). Chromatographic separation techniques like high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC), in addition to their pharmaceutical applications, are also discussed.
