Description
Book SynopsisDivided into three main parts, the book begins with a clearexplanation of basic SPE conceptsincluding theory, chemistry, andmechanisms of interaction as well as methods development,troubleshooting, and optimization. The next section presents anin-depth look at SPE applications, with separate chapters devotedto clinical, environmental, and natural product chemistry. Numerousexamples drawn from each of these three areas illustrate SPE inaction in the real world, successfully bridging the gap betweenprinciples and practice.
The final section of this book discusses the latest SPEtechnology, with detailed coverage of the automation process,solid-phase extraction disks, and innovations such as solid-phasemicroextraction and small-volume solid-phase extraction. Suggestedreading and references are included throughout, providing a usefulspringboard for further research and study.
