Description
Book SynopsisChemicals that are listed in the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) are detected and identified using different analytical procedures. These sample collection methods and sample preparation procedures are thoroughly described in this book.
Trade Review"…this book would be a significant addition to collections serving analytical and environmental chemistry research and teaching, as well as to...those interested in weapons proliferation issues." (
