About the Book:
Instrumental Methods of Analysis
imparts fundamental knowledge on the principles and instrumentation of some of
the most commonly used spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques. This book
caters to the need of the students and analysts in various fields for a
thorough understanding of the construction of various analytical instruments
and their principles. A detailed study of the book will make the readers
proficient in spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques that are covered in
the book, their applications including limitations.
The
book is divided into two sections: The first section covers the spectroscopic
techniques. All the topics of this section include a detailed description of
the concepts involved, instrumentation and applications of different techniques
with illustrations.
The
second section describes the different chromatographic techniques which include
an introduction to chromatography. This section gives a detailed note on
various terminologies used in chromatography along with theoretical knowledge
on the methodology, stationary and mobile phases along with their applications
and limitations. |
