DescriptionFilter
  
Introduction to medicinal chemistry. Study of drug physicochemical properties, distribution, metabolism and excretion. In addition to structure activity relationships. Emphasis on drugs used for the treatment of some vital organs.
First Year
  
Study of chemistry of drugs; chemical structure and mechanism of action. Antibiotics; their chemistry, mechanisms of actions and medical uses ….etc are extensively discussed.
Fourth Year
  
The study of the various classes of pharmacodynamic drugs. Their chemistry, mechanisms of action, pharmacological - clinical uses and structure-activity relationships
Fifth Year
  
Practical application of instrumental methods. In addition, training on the interpretation of instrumental analysis results and applications of these methods in the elucidation of their structures and concentration determination of the studied samples
Third Year
  
Application of qualitative analysis of secondary metabolites using thin layer chromatography (TLC) and the isolation and identification of secondary metabolites from plant drugs, using chromatographic and spectroscopic methods (TLC, IR, UV).
Fourth Year
  
Theoretical aspects of various methods used in the quantitative determination of ligand-receptor affinities (traditional methods such as radio-immuno assay, and more recent methodologies such as Capillary Electrophoresis, Enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay (ELISA), and Plasmone Surface Resonance techniques (PSR). Future plans include hands-on experience on the respective instruments, however, upon their acquisition.
PhD
  
Graduate students present an in depth seminar in the field of medicinal chemistry, usually related to their research endeavours. The student can also chose any research topics assigned and selected by the instructor.
