Within the study program in biomedical sciences, the ultracentrifugation course contrbutes to learning how :
The student will
- understand the theoretical concepts of centrifugation protocols used in the field of biomedical sciences
- know how to use these theoretical concepts to set up or adapt a centrifugation protocol
- be able to interpret the behavior of different types of biological material subjected to a centrifugation protocol
Ultracentrifugation is one of the most widely used research techniques in the life sciences, including biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, pharmacology and medical diagnostics. In this course, we'll look at the main principles governing the use of centrifugation, through theoretical concepts and the study of certain practical applications, particularly in the analytical field. We'll see that ultracentrifugation can contribute to obtaining results that go far beyond the simple separation of a pellet from a supernatant.
