Modern Methods for Trace Element Determination
C. Vandecasteele,C. B. Block | 1997-02-18 00:00:00 | Wiley | 344 | Internal Medicine
Describes the theory, apparatus, performance and usage of modern methods for trace element determination, atomic absorption, emission, fluorescence and mass spectroscopies, x-ray techniques and activation analysis. Attention is given to sample preparation, current calibration procedures and to methods for trace element speciation. Contains in-depth information on relatively new techniques such as ICP-MS and PIXE. All methods are illustrated with authentic examples from the ever-expanding fields of environmental and biological analysis of high purity materials.
Reviews
This book provides a very general overview of elemental instrumental analysis (as opposed to molecular/chromatographic methods). Suitable for someone who is not an analytical chemist but requires knowledge of their methods.
A good alternative title that covers both elemental and molecular analysis is Chemical Instrumentation: A Systematic Approach by Strobel & Heineman.
