Training

The Separation Science and Metabolomics Laboratory has an international reputation for excellence in practical instrumental training and they have conducted courses in most capital cities in Australia and New Zealand and in Singapore, China, Malaysia, Thailand and India. The training courses are delivered by personnel actively involved in research and method development with particular emphasis on Gas Chromatography, High Performance Liquid Chromatography, Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry, Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry, MALDI Mass Spectrometry, Sample Preparation and Metabolomics.

All courses are practical courses with at least 50% of the course time hands on in the laboratory. Customised and on-site courses training programs can be provided.

We are now offering the following courses:

• Understanding HPLC Operation - HPLC theory, Operation, Instrument Optimisation, Troubleshooting and Maintenance - for beginners to intermediate users (18 -20 June 2013)
