Meet the Challenges of the Modern Analytical Laboratory with a Competent, Well-Trained Laboratory Workforce.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c29438) has announced the addition of E-Learning Course: Essential Analytical Techniques An analytical technique is a method that is used to determine the concentration of a chemical compound or chemical element. There are a wide variety of techniques used for analysis, from simple weighing (gravimetric) to titrations (titrimetric)to very advanced techniques using  (Certified See certification. ) to their offering

A modern analytical laboratory faces a variety of regulatory and operational challenges including:

- Operating in compliance with GMP GMP (guanosine monophosphate): see guanine.  and other applicable industry regulations

- Optimizing use of available resources

- Consistently generating reliable and trustworthy data

- Minimizing errors, levels of retesting and waste

These challenges cannot be successfully met without the input of a competent, well-trained laboratory workforce. "Essential Analytical Techniques" forms part of the EssentialAnalyst(TM) e-Learning curriculum which is specially designed for analysts in regulated industries such as Finished Dose Pharmaceuticals, API/Bulk chemical manufacturing, Biotechnology and Medical Devices. It provides critical knowledge in key areas such as current Good Manufacturing Practice Good Manufacturing Practice or GMP (also referred to as 'cGMP' or 'current Good Manufacturing Practice') is a term that is recognized worldwide for the control and management of manufacturing and quality control testing of foods and pharmaceutical products.  (CGMP), laboratory practices, techniques, and health and safety issues.

Accessed via the Internet or your company's intranet, each EssentialAnalyst(TM) course is a multimedia learning experience that combines text, graphics, animation and audio to present critical knowledge in an engaging and interactive way.

Equipped with such knowledge, the transition from trainee to competent analyst is made smoother and more efficient. Standard Operating Procedures standard operating procedure Medtalk A technique, method or therapy performed 'by the book,' using a standard protocol meeting internally or externally defined criteria; a formal, written procedure that describes how specific lab operations are to be performed.  (SOPs), with their own particular industry jargon, become easier to understand. On-the-Job Training becomes more effective as trainees comprehend what they see and hear.

This course presents a detailed look at those laboratory techniques Laboratory techniques are the sum of procedures used on natural sciences such as chemistry, biology, physics in order to conduct an experiment, all of them follow scientific method; while some of them involves the use of complex laboratory equipment from laboratory glassware to  which are essential knowledge for all competent analysts, namely, weighing, use of glassware, and solution preparation. Laboratory calculations and errors are discussed including statistical treatment of analytical results.

The course continues with an introduction to UV/VIS, AA and IR spectrophotometry spectrophotometry

Branch of spectroscopy dealing with measurement of radiant energy transmitted or reflected by a body as a function of wavelength. The measurement is usually compared to that transmitted or reflected by a system that serves as a standard.
.

Finally, the principles of wet chemistry are discussed with a focus on pipettes, burettes and volumetric volumetric /vol·u·met·ric/ (vol?u-met´rik) pertaining to or accompanied by measurement in volumes.

vol·u·met·ric
adj.
Of or relating to measurement by volume.
 glassware.

Topics Covered:

- Weighing

- Glassware

- Solution Preparation

- Laboratory Calculations/Errors

- Instrumentation

- Wet Chemistry

Certificate

There is a 16 question assessment associated with each lesson within the Course and a Certificate Service is offered in which Users who achieve 100% in the assessment associated with each Lesson of a Course are deemed to have passed the Course, and are posted a Certificate.
