Analytical Pharmaceutical Chemistry

Chemical analysis is a central part of many disciplines within life science. For example, high-quality chemical analysis data are often a prerequisite to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters, as a basis for clinical diagnoses, toxicological assessments and forensic conclusions. During pharmaceutical development, chemical analysis is required to determine, among many things, chemical structure, purity and stability.

In Analytical Pharmaceutical Chemistry, we study chemical analysis principles aiming to increase the understanding of relevant physico-chemical mechanisms. The knowledge is utilised in the development of more sensitive and selective analysis methods for complex sample materials. The methods are thence used in interdisciplinary collaborative projects where chemical analysis is central to the acquisition of knowledge.
