Course Goal / Objective
The aim of this course is to provide theoretical and practical knowledge to pharmacy students about the general principles of toxicology; the factors which affect toxicity; the fate of xenobiotics in the body; hazards of drugs, chemical, biological and physical factors on the body and the study of these hazards on macro and molecular basis; toxicological risk assessment to determine safe limits.
Course Content
Demonstration (practical approaches in toxicology, classification of poisons according to isolation techniques; isolation techniques of poisons; collection, storage and use of samples; preparation of samples; quantitative and qualitative analysis methods of toxic substances; experimental animals); isolation of acidic and alkaline drugs that cause poisoning by extraction from biological material, identification by primary direct tests and chromatographic methods and evaluation of their toxicity, evaluation of their toxicity by spectrophotometric method.
