Focusing on the technology of optimum data acquisition, this text presents coverage of the development of Fourier transform instruments and their application to problems in planetary and Earth atmospheric research. There is also a summary of the sampling and data processing aspects.

A sensor is an extremely sensitive measuring device. The measuring can be conducted by chemical, mechanical, biological, optic, or electronic means. Sensors are encountered everyday, be it the bomb detector in an airport, the gas gauge of an automobile, or the smoke detector in the home.

High-Resolution Solid-State NMR of Silicates and Zeolites Gunter Engelhardt and Dieter Michel "I strongly recommend this book as an important reference for scientists concerned with the structural properties of siliceous materials.

This volume is concerned with the application of fluorescence, phosphorescence and chemiluminescence spectra to the analysis of organic and inorganic compounds. It also deals with the use of these spectra to extract data about the structure and function of biological macromolecules.

For the analyses of DNA and RNA, high pressure/performance liquid chromatography has proven itself to be extremely useful. This text deals with both trace and ultratrace analyses at or below ppm level. A variety of applications and methods are discussed, as well as equipment considerations.

When bombarded with X-rays, solid materials produce distinct scattering patterns similar to fingerprints. X-ray powder diffraction is a technique used to fingerprint solid samples, which are then identified and cataloged for future use-much the way the FBI keeps fingerprints on file.

Describes the basic prerequisities for a fluorometric immunoassay: the antibody, the immunological technology, the fluorescent probe, and the instrument. Provides a profile of the clinical applications of the various assay technologies.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were one of the first chemicals discovered to cause cancer in humans. This work covers polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons with larger than seven rings. It has chapters devoted to sample handling and preparation and methodology.

Dealing with the various aspects of petroleum analysis, this book provides an explanation of the necessary standard tests that are applicable to feedstocks. The topics include: chemical composition; physical, thermal, electrical, and optical property testing methods; spectroscopic, chemical, and fractionation methods; molecular weight; and more.

X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF) is a method of "fingerprinting" and identifying solid and liquid samples. Written by the leading international expert in the field, this totally-revised update provides an up-to-the-minute review of the progress of XRF in the last ten years, covering history, design, application, and interpretation.

This new edition includes: A chapter on the use of computer techniques in archaeological chemistry. A condensed introductory chapter, so that readers can get right into the "meat" of the book. Updated material on all the methods and techniques used to study the nature, age, and provenance of archaeological materials.

The authors are pioneering a new approach to classifying existing chemometric techniques for data analysis in one and two dimensions, using a practical applications approach to illustrating chemical examples and problems. Written in a simple, balanced, applications-based style, the book will appeal to both theorists and non-mathematicians.
