Objectives
Obtaining insight into good laboratory practice, quality care and quality
guardsystems.
Basic knowledge is provided concerning special techniques as sampling,
analysis of water, soil, solid waste, sludge, air in working atmospheres,
emission and immission.
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of analytical chemistry related to environmental issues.
Topics
Theory:
GLP
