Applications of LC-MS in Toxicology Univ. of Pavia, Italy. Covers all essential theoretical aspects of LC-MS, including technical details of the instrumentation and different operating modes, method development, optimisation and validation, quantification, and criteria for identification and confirmation. For forensic and clinical toxicologists.
Phage Display : A Laboratory Manual Manual includes five sections: overview of some key aspects of phage display; the construction, screening, and analysis of antibody libraries on the surface of phage, of phage-displayed peptide libraries, and of gene-fragment and cDNA-expression libraries; and appendices that summarize commonly used experimental procedures, data, recipes, suppliers, and precautions.
Organic Chemistry Laboratory Manual Written in a straightforward manner, this laboratory manual for a two-semester organic chemistry course provides only the essential background material, laboratory set-ups, and procedures for each exercise. The exercises have been carefully written to minimize set-up time and eliminate the need for elaborate and expensive laboratory equipment. Laboratory techniques are emphasized rather than theoretical understanding.
Preparative Chromatography Techniques: Applications in Natural Product Isolation This book describes modern preparative chromatography techniques and their application in the separation of natural products, synthetic intermediates, metabolites, macromolecules, and biologically active substances, e.g. new lead compounds from microorganisms and both marine and terrestrial higher organisms. The authors focus their book on the applications and aim to provide the reader with a rapid idea on how to obtain milligram or gram quantities for pure constituents from complex mixtures with minimum effort. Descriptions of apparatus and operation procedures together with numerous examples of actual separations - often widely scattered in literature - are provided. This completely revised second edition has been enlarged by chapters on macromolecule and and enantiomer separation and on preparative GC.
Plant Drug Analysis: A Thin Layer Chromatography Atlas This second edition of Plant Drug Analysis includes more than 200 updated color photographs of superb quality demonstrating chromatograms of all relevant standard drugs. The atlas will be a useful reference for analyzing plant drugs, identifying unknown drugs or monitoring the purity or constituents of a given drug.
All drugs presented meet the standard of the official pharmacopoeia and originate from well-defined botanical sources. With this guide the technique of thin layer chromatography can be easily used without previous pharmacognostic training. Only commercially available equipment and reagents are needed, the sources as well as all practical details are given.
Troubleshooting HPLC Systems: A Bench Manual A complete, up-to-date guide to the use, maintenance, and troubleshooting of HPLC systems
The last twenty-five years have seen a dramatic rise in the use of High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) in laboratories worldwide. Troubleshooting HPLC Systems provides analysts as well as laboratory technicians and managers with a readily accessible and immensely useful guide to the new generation of HPLC equipment and techniques. With an emphasis on effective troubleshooting of HPLC systems, this lab companion covers system configuration and functions, problem-solving procedures, maintenance, and HPLC basics. It then walks chromatographers investigating the source of a malfunction through each system component-from solvents and reservoirs to sample preparation to columns and detectors. Special features of Troubleshooting HPLC Systems include:
* A detailed review of HPLC instrumentation and accessories
* The role of operating parameters as indicators of system performance
* Step-by-step troubleshooting protocols for each system component
* How to set up a preventive maintenance program for HPLC systems
* An overview of the categories of HPLC separations
* A compilation of HPLC terms and definitions
* Tables and charts detailing solvents' properties
HPLC Made to Measure: A Practical Handbook for Optimization The only topical HPLC book to focus on optimization, this volume addresses the needs of HPLC users who wish to constantly improve their methods, in particular in terms of throughput, accuracy and cost-effectiveness.
This handbook features contributions from such bestselling authors as John W. Dolan, Michael McBrien, Veronika R. Meyer, Uwe D. Neue, Lloyd R. Snyder, and Klaus K. Unger, as well as from scientists working for major companies, including Agilent, AstraZeneca, Merck, Schering, Tosoh Biosep, VWR, and Waters. It covers essential aspects of optimization in general, optimization in different LC-modi, hyphenated techniques and computer-aided optimization. The whole is rounded off with a section of user reports.
Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry, Third Edition (Chromatographic Science) A constructive evaluation of the most significant developments in liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) and its uses for quantitative bioanalysis and characterization for a diverse range of disciplines, Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry, Third Edition offers a well-rounded coverage of the latest technological developments and applications.
As the technology itself has matured into a reliable analytical method over the last 15 years, the most exciting developments occur in LC–MS augments research into new applications. This edition places a stronger emphasis than previous editions on the impact of LC–MS methods, dedicating two-thirds of the text to small-molecule and biomolecular applications such as proteomics, pharmaceutical drug discovery and development, biochemistry, clinical analysis, environmental studies, and natural products research. Supported by the most relevant literature available, each chapter examines how the strategies, technologies, and recent advances—from sample pretreatment to data processing—in LC–MS helped to shape these disciplines. Featuring new chapters and extensive revisions throughout the book, Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry, Third Edition continues to provide scientists with a definitive guide and reference to the most important principles, strategies, and experimental precedents for applying LC–MS to their research.
Basic Gas Chromatography Gas Chromatography (GC) is undoubtedly the most widely used technique for the separation and analysis of volatile compounds. Yet comprehensive guides to contemporary GC theory and practice are surprisingly hard to find.
Basic Gas Chromatography fills this significant void in the GC literature. Written by two well-known practitioners and educators in GC, it offers thorough coverage of the basic principles and techniques of modern gas chromatography.
Designed to serve as a primer/working reference for bench chemists and as a textbook for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students, it presents the fundamentals in a straightforward and logical fashion. Theoretical issues are explained without complicated equations and derivations and always in terms of how they relate to practical operating principles. Timely, comprehensive, and accessible, Basic Gas Chromatography:
* Provides a balanced presentation of theory and practice
* Includes both capillary column and packed column chromatography
* Uses the new IUPAC terms throughout, cross-referenced to traditional terms and symbols
* Offers a wealth of helpful hints, step-by-step guidelines, and trouble-shooting tips
* Briefly covers GC-MS, headspace analysis, chiral analysis, solid phase microextraction, and other cutting-edge topics.
The Troubleshooting and Maintenance Guide for Gas Chromatographers This fourth edition of the classic guide for every user of gas chromatographic instrumentation is now updated to include such new topics as fast GC using narrow, short columns, electronic pressure control, and basic aspects of quantitative gas chromatography.
The author shares his many years of experience in technical support for gas chromatography users, addressing the most common problems, questions and misconceptions in capillary gas chromatography. He structures and presents the material in a concise and practical manner, suitable even for the most inexperienced user without any detailed knowledge of chemistry or chromatography. For lab technicians in chemistry, analytical, food, medicinal and environmental chemists, pharmaceutists.
