The U6th Form Chemists attended Bath University this week to conduct some advanced laboratory investigations. Pupils separated and identified the components of a medicinal drug, successfully determining the formulation. They used many advanced techniques, such as infrared spectroscopy and nuclear resonance spectrometry, with some pieces of equipment worth over half a million pounds! It was a very exciting opportunity to experience practical work in the university laboratories, and obtain an insight into what studying Chemistry at University might actually be like.
