Evaluation scale

H-5

Content scheduling

This course include theoretical part (3 CR) and laboratory part (2 CR).

Content of this course:
-The theoretical background and main principle of upstream and downstream processes
-The related equipments and techniques of bioprocesses
-Focus will be on biopharmaceuticals and proteins for diagnostics

-A protein will be produced, purified and assayed in laboratory works (laboratory part)

Objective

The participants are able to describe the specific features of bioprocesses and related apparatus, equipment and techniques. The participants are able to describe versatilely industrially and from the viewpoint of sustainable development imporntant products and manufacturing processes. The participants are able to describe the most important analytical methods used in biomaterials characterization, genetic engineering, diagnostics and bioprocesses.

Content

- different bioprocesses and related apparatus, equipment and techniques

Materials

Will be available in Itslearning platform.

Teaching methods

Group and individual assignments
Protein purification simulation task
Laboratory experiments, laboratory reports
