Fundamentals of Potentiometric Titration Training
Fundamentals of Potentiometric Titration
This three-day training course provides attendees with a comprehensive understanding of Metrohm potentiometric titration instruments, blending theoretical knowledge with practical experience. The course introduces the fundamentals of potentiometric titration, covering key principles, electrode selection, and proper maintenance. Participants will gain hands-on experience setting up their instruments, maintaining electrodes, and familiarizing themselves with Metrohm’s software interface to ensure accurate and reliable results.
As the course progresses, attendees will delve into method development and optimization, learning how to create and customize titration methods for specific applications. Troubleshooting common issues and interpreting results will be a key focus, with practical exercises designed to reinforce learning. Participants will also explore more advanced techniques, automation options, and compliance considerations to enhance efficiency and meet industry standards. The course concludes with a dedicated Q&A and troubleshooting session, allowing attendees to address specific challenges and apply their knowledge through guided hands-on practice.
