Description


Analyses biological and organic species in complex matrices (e.g., biological, food, soil, wastewater etc.). Emphasis will be on (i) bioassays and new methods requiring minimal sample preparation: enzyme and immunoassays, assay formats, transduction and design, biosensors including DNA and surface plasmon resonance devices; (ii) conventional instrumental techniques for analysis of biological and organic molecules with emphasis on sample preparation including sampling, extraction, derivatisation and clean-up.
