Department of Analytical Chemistry specializes in characterization of physicochemical properties of natural and synthetic compounds and their metabolites, determination of 3D structure and dynamics of biological macromolecules, interactions between protein receptors and ligands, and analysis and identification of target proteins using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectrometry technologies. The department plays an important role in data analysis and technical supports for drug discovery.

It is equipped with 13 large instruments, including 7 NMR instruments (e.g. 600 MHz NMR with cryoprobe), 6 mass spectrometers (e.g. high-resolution double focusing magnetic sector spectrometer, DFS).
