Description eBook delivery & access Reviews
Volume 7 continues the tradition of previous volumes in this series by presenting cutting-edge and current advances in atomic spectroscopy. This volume focuses on the application of atomic spectroscopy particularly ICPMS, with an emphasis in the area of clinical and biological samples

New techniques such as double focusing and field-flow fractionation ICP-MS are presented. Other areas such as laser induced breakdown spectrometry and new applications of graphite furnace AAS are included. A major theme of many of the chapters is speciation, which is the hottest topic in elemental determination at present.

· Focuses on cutting-edge advances in atomic spectroscopy
· Contributors are leaders in their fields
· Can be used in conjunction with the other books in the series or as a stand-alone title
