This course will introduce the student to various analytical techniques used in Pharmaceutical Sciences. The main topics are including: i) Analytical Science in Modern Drug Discovery, ii) Analytical Method Selection Frameworks, iii) Quality control & performance qualification of analytical methods, iv) Measurement basics: digital electronics and computational: signal and noise, v) UV/Vis spectroscopy in drug discovery (quantification, kinetics), vi) Fluorescence & luminescence techniques, vii) Chromatography (HPLC, GC) for purity & metabolite profiling, viii) Immunoassays (ELISA, Alpha LISA) for bioanalytic & PK studies, ix) Analytical techniques for biologic drugs, x) Analytical data Analysis & decision-making workshop. In addition to xi) identification and quantification, xii) Spectroscopic techniques and their applications involving absorption will be discussed.
