Gas Chromatography Analytical Chemistry by Open Learning [Paperback]

Approaches the subject from the perspective of a chromatographer who needs to know enough theory to make the best use of a chosen technique. Emphasizes the actual application of the methods--not just the theories on which they are based. This edition features a number of advances in the field since publication of the first volume. These include new chapters on high resolution gas chromatography (GC), GC detectors and classification of GC. Self-assessment questions ensure full understanding of the concepts.The Fundamental Chromatograph.

Ian A. Fowlis is the author of Gas Chromatography: Analytical Chemistry by Open Learning, 2nd Edition, published by Wiley.Gas Chromatography Second Edition Gas chromatography (GC) is among the most important and powerful techniques in analytical chemistry, with a wide range of applications. This thoroughly revised second edition will provide the newcomer to the technique with a sound working knowledge of the basic principles and theory behind the technology. In addition, it incorporates the most important advances which have taken place in the field in recent years, including updated and expanded chapters on capillary column GC and detectors for GC, and revised chapters on qualitative analysis, and data handling and quantitative analysis. This second edition of Gas Chromatography will prove invaluable to all those studying and using gas chromatography for the first time. Thl“m
