Research in the Division of Analytical Chemistry.

Within the Center for Bio-Pharmaceutical Sciences, the Division of Analytical Chemistry develops the tools that are used in other divisions. The numerous techniques of analytical chemistry are studied in order to improve selectivity, sensitivity, etc. The emphasis of the research is on bioanalysis. The possibilities and pitfalls of bioanalysis are demonstrated with vitamin KI (phylloquinone), where a detection limit of 5 pg can be reached.
