Atomic Spectroscopy in Elemental Analysis
Date: Nov 25, 2003
Author: Michael Cullen
Atomic spectroscopy is the key technology used in the characterisation of inorganic materials. It encompasses a wide variety of techniques and provides rapid, sensitive and selective determination of elemental composition. This volume provides an overview of the complete range of atomic spectroscopy techniques available to the elemental analyst. Each chapter covers the essential principles of a technique, the available instrumentation and a range of representative applications. This is a book for...
Read MoreSample Preparation Techniques in Analytical Chemistry
Date: Oct 10, 2003
Author: Somenath Mitra
The importance of accurate sample preparation techniques cannot be overstated--meticulous sample preparation is essential. Often overlooked, it is the midway point where the analytes from the sample matrix are transformed so they are suitable for analysis. Even the best analytical techniques cannot rectify problems generated by sloppy sample pretreatment. Devoted entirely to teaching and reinforcing these necessary pretreatment steps, Sample Preparation Techniques in Analytical Chemistry addresses diverse...

Experimental Design for Combinatorial and High Throughput Materials Development
Date: Jan 7, 2003
Author: James N. Cawse
In the past decade, combinatorial and high throughput experimental methods have revolutionized the pharmaceutical industry, allowing researchers to conduct more experiments in a week than was previously possible in a year. Now high throughput experimentation is rapidly spreading from its origins in the pharmaceutical world to larger industrial research establishments such as GE and DuPont, and even to smaller companies and universities. Consequently, researchers need to know the kinds of problems, desired...

Glow Discharge Plasmas in Analytical Spectroscopy
Date: Nov 27, 2002
Author: R. Kenneth Marcus, José A. C. Broekaert
This multi-author, edited volume includes chapters which deal with both basic and highly complex applications. Glow discharge devices are now being used in very novel ways for the analysis of liquids and gases, including molecular species detection and identification, an area that was beyond the perceived scope of applicability just ten years ago. It is expected that the next decade will see a growth in the interest and application of glow discharge devices far surpassing the expectations of the last...
