Main themes |
- In the analytical part, the teachers will discuss the main methods and norms used for purity and quality control of drugs (qualitative and quantitative analysis of impurities)
- In the drug synthesis part, the teachers will discuss, using several chemical families of drugs as example, the modes of preparation, and the interactions of the drugs with their targets and/or the proteins related to their metabolism. The synthesis processes will be explained with a special focus on secondary reactions and impurities produced.
|
Aims |
The aims of the first part of the course are to give the student the appropriate knowledge:
- To understand and use efficiently reference documents as pharmacopoeias for quality control of a medicine or its constituents.
- To allow the student to choose the most adequate analytical method to solve a given problem in drug analysis (mixture of active molecules, related substances,
)
The aims of the second part of the course are to give the student the appropriate knowledge:
- To understand the development of a drug, its mechanism of action (interaction with targets) and its production via synthesis, isolation or biotechnology
- To allow him, through chosen examples, to understand problems and methodology in pharmaceutical chemistry
