Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
In addition to food additives and flavourings, methods for the determination of food contaminants will be learned. Furthermore, the handling of analytical instruments (HPLC, GC-MS, FES. ect.), as they are routinely used in food analysis, will be learned and applied. The methods learned serve the students as a basis for planning and performing a more complex food chemical analysis (see LMC-B6).

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
Obligatory preliminary meeting including safety training and compulsory attendance during the whole practical course.For food chemists, the prerequisite chain applies with the mandatory completion of LMAP-I (270154) or LMAP-II (270086) before the practical course.The final assessment will include the result of the application (the Antestat), the results of the analysis, the quality of the implementation and the final report. To pass the application (Antestat), you need to receive more than 50% of the total points. Additionally, you cannot fail more than three experimental parts (receive less than 50% of the points of any part). If you fail more than three experimental parts or receive less than 50% of the total points of the application (Antestat), you will receive a grade 5 for the course and cannot participate in the practical part. If you fail one to three experimental parts of the application (Antestat), you will lose all the points from this experimental part of the Antestat, but you will have the chance to participate in the experimental day in the laboratory. Before the experimental day in the laboratory begins, you will be asked questions about the experimental proceedure, the hazards and any dangerous chemicals to be used in the lab for this experiment, and you will be asked if you can explain what you will do and how you will do it in the lab. A positive assessment will result in your participation on this experiment day. A negative assessment on the experimental day will result in the exclusion from the laboratory for this day and the no opportunity to write a protocol for this experiment.Minimum requirement is thorough conduction of the experiments according to the laboratory regulations and a satisfying laboratory report.ATTENTION: Please register for this course even if you do not fulfill the prerequisites at the time of registration but plan to fulfill them by the time of the course. Registration at a later date will not be considered.
