A Workshop at the College of Applied Sciences Illustrates the Chronological Development of Organic Diagnostic Techniques

The Department of Applied Chemistry at the College of Applied Sciences, University of Samarra, clarified “the development of organic diagnostic techniques over time” through a workshop presented by Dr. Esraa Ismail Saleh and Assist. Lect. Zina Mousa Mustafa.

Esraa reviewed the historical development of organic compound diagnostic methods, starting from traditional methods, moving through the spectral revolution and modern separation techniques, and reaching ultra-high precision technologies and AI-supported systems.

For her part, Zina pointed out the most prominent scientific milestones in the field of organic diagnostics, such as: qualitative analysis, physical properties, and spectroscopic techniques (IR, UV-Vis, NMR, MS), in addition to modern separation techniques (GC, HPLC), high-precision devices (HRMS, Superconducting NMR, Microfluidics), alongside digital databases that support molecular identification processes.

In the same context, the two lecturers recommended the importance of integrating modern technologies into scientific research and industry, due to their significant impact on improving accuracy and speed in diagnosing organic compounds.
