Annotation
The subject Analysis of exogenous compounds in biological materials (ABM) provides information on the methods of bioanalysis involving both sample preparation and the instrumental analysis (HPLC, CZE, GC using coupling with various detectors). The subject is partly carried out in the laboratories of Faculty Hospital.
