This book covers one of the most important areas in analytical
sciences, i.e. that of extraction techniques for organic compounds
in environmental and related matrices, e.g. food. This text
discusses all of the key stages for analysing a sample for organic
compounds from the initial sampling protocols through to the range
of different extraction techniques used for solid, liquid and air
samples and finally through to the final chromatographic analysis.
The text provides detailed information on specific extraction
techniques to prepare samples for organic compound analysis.
The topics covered include the following: Initial steps for
solid, aqueous and air sampling.Extraction techniques for aqueous
samples, including LLE, purge and trap, SPE, SPME, SBSE, SDME,
membrane microextraction and MEPS.Extraction techniques for solid
samples, including Soxhlet, "Soxtec," shake-flask, sonication, PFE,
MAE, SFE and MSPD.Extraction techniques for air sampling, including
whole air, enrichment approaches and desorption
techniques.Pre-concentration approaches for
post-extraction.Practical aspects for chromatographic analysis (GC
and HPLC) of organic compounds.Quality assurance aspects of
analysis.Health and safety considerations.
Key features include the following: Up-to-date information on
the latest development in extraction techniques for organic
compounds in environmental and food matrices.Written in the AnTS
style, it is ideal for use as a self-study guide, as the basis of a
taught course or guided reading for new "early-career"
researchers.Includes a resources section to guide the reader to
other sources of information.
"Extraction Techniques in Analytical Sciences" should prove
invaluable to students who are studying university-level courses -
"undergraduate- to postgraduate-taught." The text will also prove
invaluable as a key starting point for individuals undertaking
applied research in the fields of analytical, bioanalytical,
environmental and food sciences.
The Analytical Techniques in the Sciences series of books
provides coverage of all of the major analytical techniques and
their application in the most important areas of physical, life and
material sciences. Each text is presented in an open
learning/distance learning style, in which the learning objectives
are clearly identified. The reader's understanding of the material
is constantly evaluated by the use of self-assessment and
discussion questions. Series Editor: David J. Ando
