Analusis

A reference showing how to choose the most effective techniques for assessing toxicity of chemicals in both food and the environment. Material is arranged by toxic substance. Describes standard instrumental methods including gas chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, and details the use of conventional column and thin-layer chromatography for sampling preparations. Explains methods for isolating and quantifying toxic substances, and surveys analytical work done on toxicants in the last three decades. For analytical, food, agricultural, and oil chemists, environmental scientists, toxicologists, biochemists, biologists, and microbiologists. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
