Purpose of class
To be able to explain the difficulties encountered when analyzing real samples and the methods used to overcome them.
To be able to explain sample pretreatment procedures, with a particular focus on extraction techniques.
To be able to explain the basic principles and overviews of several representative instrumental analytical methods.
Course description
In practical applications of analytical chemistry, various real-world materials must be measured as samples; however, such real samples are often not in the “clean” condition typically assumed in analytical chemistry textbooks. In the analysis of real samples, analysts face numerous constraints, such as interference from coexisting components, limitations on destructive treatments due to the value of the samples, and restrictions arising from limited sample quantities.
In this course, with a focus on applying analytical chemistry techniques to real-sample analysis, students will study sample pretreatment methods and the fundamentals of several analytical techniques. Through these topics, the course aims to equip students with the knowledge required to design appropriate analytical methods tailored to the characteristics of each sample.
Goals and objectives
  1. To understand the challenges of real-sample analysis and to be able to explain the key factors that must be considered.
  2. To understand the fundamentals of sample pretreatment methods and to be able to explain the differences among individual techniques.
  3. To understand the fundamentals of representative instrumental analytical methods and to be able to explain the characteristics of each technique.

Evaluation method and criteria
Achievement of Goals and Objectives 1 and 2 are assessed through a midterm examination that includes relevant content from these outcomes, while Achievement of Goals and Objectives 3 is assessed through a final examination covering the corresponding content.
The overall course grade is determined by the combined score of the midterm examination (maximum 50 points) and the final examination (maximum 50 points), and a total score of 60 points or higher is required to pass the course.
The grading criteria are designed such that students who demonstrate a fundamental understanding of the topics explained in the lectures will obtain an overall score of approximately 60 points.
