Principles and Practice of Bioanalysis

by Richard F. Venn (Editor)

Overview

In the seven years since the publication of Principles and Practice of Bioanalysis bioanalytical methods have remained the same, but their usage patterns have changed. This second edition of a bestseller provides an updated guide to the techniques used in developing and running ultra-trace analyses for drugs, metabolites, and other substance

Editorial Reviews

Mostly British scientists working mostly in industry laboratories explain the methods and strategies for developing and running ultra- trace analysis for drugs, metabolites, and other substances. Rather than recipe-type guides, they describe the basics and strengths and weaknesses of such techniques as solid-phase extraction, high- performance liquid chromatography optimization, capillary electrophoresis, and immunoassays. Most of the examples are from the pharmaceutical industry, but the principles should apply to analyzing small molecules in a biomatrix in such fields as biochemistry and environmental monitoring as well.
