Physicochemical Analysis in the Food and Chemical Industry

TLQB025 - ECTS This UC aims to transmit knowledge about the operations and processes most used in the food and chemical industry, which allow the control of physical and chemical properties during their transformation and storage. The student must have notions about the characteristics that define the quality of these products, changes in their properties; You must know and know how to apply appropriate analytical techniques to each product under evaluation.

Chemical Laboratories

TLQB024 - ECTS

The purpose of discipline is to provide skills training in basic operations of chemical laboratory. After completed the course, students should have acquired the following competencies:

- 1. Ability to analyze data analytical and experimental results.

- 2. Interpreting the sources of uncertainty and the ways of propagation.

- 3.  Competence in handling analytical glassware, analytical equipment, and reagents in the laboratory.

- Interpret the results of analytical chemistry and acquire critical skills and integration of knowledge in laboratory work.

Microbiology and Microbial Analysis

TLQB004 - ECTS At the end of the course, students are expected to understand and know the theoretical foundations: microorganisms and their diversity; the kinetics and energy of bacterial growth and cell death; the effect of environmental factors and anti-microbial agents in the control of microbial growth; the basic mechanisms underlying the adaptability and proliferation of microorganisms in different habitats. It should also learn theoretical and practical knowledge about the different types of microbial analysis, applicable standards depending on the type of sample and/or analysis. The student must also be able to apply, in the laboratory context, the knowledge
previous ones, knowing how to work safely and following the rules of asepsis, knowing how to prepare the culture media appropriate to each type of microorganism, to know methods of sterilization, disinfection and decontamination, to carry out microscopic examinations, perform sample collection and preparation, master sample dilution techniques and
innoculation, know microbial identification methods in food, water and air.

Chemistry II

TLQB023 - ECTS The aim is for the student to acquire theoretical and practical knowledge of chemistry, which will support the preparation of specialized technical reports with clear, concise, and comprehensive information. This course also aims to enable the future professional laboratory technician in Chemical and Biological Laboratory to perform experimental work with an understanding of the scientific foundations that underpin it. Therefore, the curriculum deepens knowledge in chemistry at the level of major chemical equilibria, with exemplification through laboratory work.

Analysis and Statistical Data Processing

TLQB008 - ECTS

The main objective is to provide a set of basic knowledge that will enable the student to perform a descriptive analysis on a set of data.

The student should be able to apply appropriate descriptive measures to the data being studied, understand how to sample correctly, and identify the constraints and limits of representativeness of a sample.

Biochemistry and Biochemical Analysis

TLQB015 - ECTS
At the end of the course, students are expected to have acquired theoretical knowledge about the function and structure of biomolecules belonging to the four most representative classes, such as nucleic acids (RNA and DNA), carbohydrates, lipids and proteins, and to have notions about enzyme kinetics and enzyme assays and to understand the interconnection between the different metabolic pathways and their importance for cellular homeostasis.
In addition to acquiring theoretical knowledge, students should know how to apply it in a laboratory context, including the preparation of typical buffer solutions for biochemical tests, techniques for purifying biomolecules using chromatography and ultrafiltration, dosing techniques for biomolecules (such as carbohydrates, proteins and nucleic acids), mastering colorimetric methods and spectrophotometric analyses, analytical techniques for separating proteins using acrylamide gel electrophoresis, and analysis and dosing methods based on direct and indirect enzymatic assays.
