Instrumentation for Trace Organic Monitoring

This book provides comprehensive coverage of instrumental analysis techniques for trace organic analytes in environmental analysis. Sampling/sample preparation is discussed, in addition to mass spectrometry techniques, including GC-MS, HRMS, LCMS, APIMS, and MS-MS. This book also covers new chromatography techniques, supercritical fluid, solid-phase extraction and ion mobility spectrometry, which is a new ultra-sensitive technique. difficult problems, such as dioxin/furan analysis, organometallic speciation, atmospheric organic vapors, water analysis, and flyash toxicity testing are addressed. The book should be useful for analytical chemists, researchers and technicians who conduct trace organic analysis.
