Description
This is the second, updated edition of the very successful first edition by these co-authors. It contains up-to-date information on the field and has been expanded by several chapters, including one on multidimensional gas chromatography and another on sampling methods, as well as special injection techniques and fast gas chromatography. The new edition offers a brief introduction to GC that should appeal to readers with varying levels of education and emphasizes a practical, applied approach to the subject.
Reviews / Votes
"The book should appeal to readers with varying levels of education and emphasises a practical, applied approach to the subject. Basic Gas Chromatography, 2nd Edition remains the standard handbook for everyone from undergraduates studying analytical chemistry to working industrial chemists. It is particularly suited for intensive short courses." (Chemistry Journals, 11 April 2011)More details
