Principles of Instrumental Analysis – Douglas A. Skoog, F. James Holler, Stanley R. Crouch – 7th Edition

Description

Today, there is a wide and impressive variety of powerful and elegant tools to gather qualitative and quantitative information about the composition and structure of matter. Students of chemistry, biochemistry, physics, geology, life sciences, forensic sciences and Environmental sciences need to develop an understanding of these instrumental tools and their applications to relevant analytical problems in these fields. This book is designed to satisfy the needs of these students and other users of analytical instruments. When instrument users are familiar with the fundamental principles that underlie modern analytical instrumentation, they can make the right decisions and make efficient use of these measurement tools.

For any given analytical problem, there is a seemingly bewildering number of alternative methods for obtaining the desired information. By understanding the advantages and limitations of the various tools, appropriate decisions can be made and the user can be in tune with the limitations of sensitivity, precision and accuracy. In addition, users of instrumental methods should be aware of the different techniques for calibrating and standardizing instruments, and validating the measurements performed. Therefore, our aim is to provide readers with a complete introduction to the principles of instrumental analysis, including spectroscopic, electrochemical, chromatographic, radiochemical, thermal and surface analytical methods. By carefully studying this text, readers will discover the types of instruments available and their advantages and limitations.
