Chromatography: Concepts and Contrasts Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is an excellent book for those new to the field of chromatography and for those who would like a 'general' review of the theory and concepts.The mathematical concepts are a little watered down (compared to the Giddings text), but this one offers a fantastic practical approach, including: GC and LC instrumentation, columns, brief-but-to-the-point chapters on method development, CZE and CEC, sample prep., and an excellent chapter on special applications.I am a graduate student in chemistry, and after drudging through the endless equations in Giddings' book, Miller's text was a breath of fresh air.It offers a much more practical and understandable approach for the use of the equations during a real chemical separation for a novice chromatographer (and I'm sure as a great reference for an expert too!).Overall, I highly recommend this book-- it gives life to theory of separation science.

Product Description:
A classic on all of the major chromatographic techniques--now fully updated
Still a popular text today, the first edition of Chromatography: Concepts and Contrasts was one of the first books to cover all of the different types of chromatography. This new Second Edition offers the latest information on the topic while preserving the clear, unified approach that has made the original a classroom favorite.
Chromatography: Concepts and Contrasts, Second Edition presents the theoretical base common to various chromatographic methods, giving readers a set of general concepts for a broad understanding of the practice before moving on to discuss specific techniques. It covers gas chromatography (GC), liquid chromatography in columns (LC), and thin layer chromatography (TLC), as well as related topics such as extraction, solid phase extraction, solid phase microextraction, and mass spectrometry. The resulting text combines technical depth and comprehensiveness with accessible language and clear descriptions.
New material covered in this Second Edition includes:

Whether used as a graduate or upper-level undergraduate textbook, or as a guide for professionals, Chromatography: Concepts and Contrasts, Second Edition provides the most concise, comprehensive, and up-to-date chromatography resource available today.
