1 online resource (volumes <1> : : illustrations.)
Cornelis (Laboratory for Analytical Chemistry, Ghent University, Belgium) brings together chapters covering different aspects of procedures for speciation analysis, from sample collection and storage through sample preparation, principles of separation techniques, and element-specific detection. Other topics covered include electrochemical methods, biosensors for metal ions, radioisotope techniques, and direct solid speciation techniques. Special attention is given to quality assurance and risk assessment, and to legislation related to speciation. The book can be used as an introductory text and reference for those in analytical chemistry, biochemistry, toxicology, and environmental science.
