Schedule
Units courses prerequisite and corequisite
Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
- Introduction to statistics about sampling methods (4h theory) and exercices (4h)
- Introduction to the validation of analytical methods (4h theory)
- Practical training about main biochimical and physico-chemical methods of analysis of residus and contaminants in the food chain: ELISA, thin layer chormatography (TLC), high performance liquid chromatography, with UV, PDA or fluorescence detection (HPLC-UV/PDA/FLD), liquid or gas chromatography - mass spectrometry (GC-MS or LC-MS), screening tests for antibiotics, etc.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
The aims of this course are :
- to inform the trainee about the available analytcial methods to evidence chemcial hazards in the food chain
- to inform the training about the importance of the validation step of an analytical method, and about the the difficulties of the sampling

Adaptation of teaching commitments following the COVID-19 pandemic for the May-June 2020 session
Teaching methods implemented : distance-learning
One lecture will be made using videoconference. The session will be recorded, and an hyperlink will be provided on the course website together with the course slides.
For the "analysis of residues and contaminants" part, in addition to the face-to-face course, power points illustrated and commented in writing will serve as "practical work" at a distance.
These power points will be accompanied by resolute exercises.
Assessment subjects
The evaluation of the statistical quality control course will be on control-charts.
For the analysis of residues and contaminants, these will be exercises related to distance "practical work".
Assessment methods
Distance written exam. One question will be simultaneously sent to all students using e-mail. After a given time, they will have to return an electronic copy of their answer using e-mail.
