Liquid Phase High Performance Analysis (HPLC, UPLC, LCMS, and LC-MS-MS)

Gas chromatography (GC and GCMS)

UV-visible and IR spectroscopy

Titration, Dissolution and Dosage

Work independently and safely with hazardous chemicals materials in laboratory within the safety procedures

EXPERIENCE

SEARCH

Macromolecular Laboratory, UST, France,

PROJECT TEAM MASS SPECTROMETRY

Conducted independently high-volume controls studies for pharmaceutical/ biochemistry companies (Internal Customers) using:

Coupling of high performance liquid phase chromatograghy to mass spectrometry mode electrospray ionization LC/MS/ESI

Coupling a gas chromatography to mass spectrometry GC/MS

Key role in surveys and reports definitions of corrective and preventive actions, history tracking and regular analyzes

Develop and validate new methods of exact mass by MALDI mass spectrometry (time of flight spectrometry has MALDI-TOF) using polysines as internal standard to reinforce product development

Gathered technical reports, interpreted test results, and make presentations to the customers

REALISATIONS

Development of a new technique to estimate the exact mass, a high resolution (MALDI) of organic products

Participation in a congress Chaville, Paris

Attend and present lectures in national and international scientific congress

Prepare and deliver chemistry courses to first, second and third cycle university.

University of Algiers/ Higher National School (ENS), Paris

PROJECT MANAGER

Responsible of the development and validation of naturel resources for environmental organism.

Plan the experimental design, manage and execute the experiments within appropriate protocols:

oCollected raw materials and extracted the essential oil of four species of cypress within the established procedures

oPerformed data analysis at the same time the different species’ extraction by gas chromatography (GC) and by coupling chromatographic mass spectrometry (GC/MS/EI), and collected the data

oImproved the resolution of the constituents of oils by multichromatography,

oResearched ideas to improve separation of oils constituents and solve technical problems

oKept track of weekly activities listed on tickler for all areas of study

oCollaborate in the maintenance (troubleshooting of the instrumentation), and coordinate with the technical vendors

oParticipated in scientific congress

oMentor and make orientation for junior chemists

University of Algiers

RESEARCHER
