The basics of IC explained: Practical Ion Chromatography

Over the last decades ion chromatography has become an established method in chemical analysis. «Practical Ion Chromatography» is an introduction to the method with a focus on its practical use in the laboratory. A brief presentation of the theoretical background and an overview of the functional principles are followed by the monograph’s main part, which presents practical applications.
As the name suggests, the monograph takes a practical approach to the topic. Thus, it describes experiments to determine the presence of anions and cations in all kinds of matrices. In this it provides answers to questions such as «Is the drinking water suitable for feeding babies?», «How much nitrate is there in the spinach?», «Does the wastewater cause environmental pollution?», etc.
«Practical Ion Chromatography» is a valuable piece of reading for anyone who wants to get familiar with ion chromatography. Likewise, the monograph is highly suited for teaching students at university level. «Practical Ion Chromatography» can be downloaded free of charge from the section «Application literature» on www.metrohm.com
