The bible of gas chromatography-offering everything theprofessional and the novice need to know about running,maintaining, and interpreting the results from GC
Analytical chemists, technicians, and scientists in allieddisciplines have come to regard Modern Practice of GasChomatography as the standard reference in gas chromatography. Inaddition to serving as an invaluable reference for the experiencedpractitioner, this bestselling work provides the beginner with asolid understanding of gas chromatographic theory and basictechniques.
This new Fourth Edition incorporates the most recent developmentsin the field, including entirely new chapters on gaschromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS); optimization ofseparations and computer assistance; high speed or fast gaschromatography; mobile phase requirements: gas system requirementsand sample preparation techniques; qualitative and quantitativeanalysis by GC; updated information on detectors; validation andQA/QC of chromatographic methods; and useful hints for good gaschromatography.
As in previous editions, contributing authors have been chosen fortheir expertise and active participation in their respective areas.Modern Practice of Gas Chromatography, Fourth Edition presents awell-rounded and comprehensive overview of the current state ofthis important technology, providing a practical reference thatwill greatly appeal to both experienced chomatographers andnovices.
