| 752-1021-00L | Food Enzymology | W+ | 3 credits | 2G | L. Nyström | |
| Abstract | The course covers the fundamentals of food enzymology, application of endogenous and exogenous enzymes in food processing, as well as use of enzymes in analytics. | |||||
| Learning objective | Students can describe what enzymes are and can explain their use and functions in food and food products. Students can argue why and how enzymes are used in food processing and analysis. Students execute a research project independently and defend their findings during a presentation to peer students and an expert panel. | |||||
| Content | Enzymes in foods: the use of added enzymes in food processing, control and/or utilization of endogenous enzymes, production of enzyme preparations for food use, and chemical analysis of food components by enzymatic methods. Course contains lectures and a practical group work. | |||||
| Lecture notes | The lectures are supplemented with handouts. | |||||
| Prerequisites / Notice | Course prerequisites: Food Chemistry I/II and Food Analysis I/II (or equivalent) | |||||
| 529-0041-00L | Modern Mass Spectrometry, Hyphenated Methods, and Chemometrics | W | 6 credits | 3G | R. Zenobi, M. Badertscher, B. Hattendorf | |
| Abstract | Modern mass spectrometry, hyphenated analytical methods, speciation, methods of surface analysis, chemometrics. | |||||
| Learning objective | Comprehensive knowledge about the analytical methods introduced in this course, and their applications. | |||||
| Content | Coupling of separation with identification methods such as GC-MS, LC-MS, GC-IR, LC-IR, LC-NMR etc.; importance of speciation. Modern mass spectrometry: Time of flight and ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry, ICP-MS. Soft ionization methods, desorption methods, spray methods. Methods of surface analysis (ESCA, Auger, SIMS, raster microscopy methods). Employment of computer science for processing data in chemical analysis (chemometrics). | |||||
| Lecture notes | lecture notes will be available in the lecture at production cost. | |||||
| Literature | information about relevant literature will be available in the lecture & in the lecture notes. | |||||
| Prerequisites / Notice | Exercises are an integral part of the lecture. Prerequisites: 529-0051-00 "Analytische Chemie I (3. Semester)" 529-0058-00 "Analytische Chemie II (4. Semester)" (or equivalent) | |||||
