Solvent Microextraction: Theory and Practice

ADD SOLVENT MICROEXTRACTION TO YOUR ANALYTICAL TOOLKIT WITH THIS HANDS–ON GUIDE
This timely resource turns solvent microextraction (SME) into a practical analysis tool that analytical chemists will find to be a powerful adjunct to established sample preparation methods.
Whether you′re involved in sample preparation and analysis of solid, liquid, or atmospheric environmental, clinical, or industrial samples, Solvent Microextraction: Theory and Practice includes the information you need to integrate this cutting–edge sample preparation technique into your everyday practice, including:Insightful comparisons with other popular sampling methods
A theoretical discussion of SME, supported by examples of how theory impacts real samples
An extensive bibliography of nearly 600 application references, updated to 2009
A detailed compilation of experimental parameters and summaries of published procedures to aid in method development
More than a dozen experimental procedures for the most commonly used SME modes, with an emphasis on how to effectively apply the technique
SME modes classification and glossary to facilitate further study and research
A skill–sharpening CD–ROM that contains summaries of nearly 600 publications using SME
Written by the leading experts on SME technology, Solvent Microextraction is a time– and money–saving sourcebook that serves as both a convenient desk reference for the laboratory and an indispensable teaching tool. Most importantly, it goes beyond a compilation of reference material, providing you with a much–needed guide to proper experimental procedures, and a blueprint for understanding how and why the SME technique works.
