Aim of the course

The aim of the course is to acquire knowledge and skills related to the application of basic biotechnology and analytical methods in nanotechnology.

Prerequisites

Completion of courses in object-oriented programming in biotechnology, analytical biochemistry and agrobiotechnology, and basic knowledge in biotechnology, chemistry and physics.

Scope

Lectures: Introduction to nanobiotechnology, use of microorganisms and plants for the synthesis of metallic nanoparticles, optical properties of metal nanoparticles, the use of analytical methods to characterize metal nanoparticles, technologies of modern drug forms.

Laboratories: Secondary metabolites of plants and microorganisms. Synthesis of metal nanoparticles using biotechnological methods, characterization of metal nanoparticles using analytical methods (UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy), preparation and analysis an antibacterial test, analysis and interpretation of results based on English-language literature.

Teaching methods

Lecture - lecture in the form of a multimedia presentation

Laboratories - practical (carrying out experiments, making measurements of samples on equipment designed for physicochemical analysis, interpretation of the results obtained and performance of the report).

Learning outcomes and methods of theirs verification

Assignment conditions

Lectures - final exam conducted in the form of a one-time selection test - duration of 90 minutes. To pass on a satisfactory grade, 51% of correct answers must be obtained.

Laboratories - the prerequisite for getting a pass from the laboratories is attendance, correct performance of experiments and measurements, as well as giving and passing the self-made report.

The final grade is the arithmetic mean of partial ratings.
