CHEM 329

Instrumental Methods for Chemical and Biological Sciences

The aim of this course is to expose students to several instrumental techniques in chemistry, biochemistry, and biotechnology. The course will cover the principles underlying common instrumental spectroscopic techniques. Instrumental techniques such as absorbance, fluorescence, atomic spectroscopy, vibrational spectroscopy, electrochemistry, mass spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectrospcopy will be covered. Emphasis will beplaced on devices and techniques that enable sensitive and selective molecualr measurement. Laboratory
