Liquid Chromatography

Liquid Chromatography: Fundamentals and Instrumentation, Third Edition, is a single source of authoritative information on all aspects of the practice of modern liquid chromatography. It gives those working in both academia and industry the opportunity to learn, refresh, and deepen their understanding of the field. It helps them acquire basic and advanced theoretical concepts, recognition mechanisms, conventional and advanced instrumentation, method development, data analysis, and more. In the years since the second edition was published, numerous papers have been released on new achievements in liquid chromatography, including the development of new stationary phases, improvement of instrumentation, and development of theory. This third edition addresses these new developments with updated chapters from the most expert researchers in the field. Together with Liquid Chromatography: Applications, this book is a valuable reference for scientists working in academia and research institutes, teachers and university students, and industry professionals in R&D and quality control managers. Emphasizes the integration of chromatographic methods and sample preparation Provides important data related to complex matrices, sample preparation, and data handling Gives background information to facilitate the choice of LC sub-technique and experimental conditions - mobile and stationary phases, detectors, data processing, and more New to this edition: All chapters have been brought up to date, and all-new chapters have been added on the topics of chiral recognition, co-solvents and mobile phase additives, Physicochemical measurements, and Identification and quantitation in mass spectrometry
